1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

In this study, montmorillonite-supported nanoscaled zero-valent iron (Mt-nZVI) composites were fabricated using a facile liquid-phase reduction method to avoid serious agglomeration of nZVI particles in suspensions due to magnetic effect. The morphology, crystal structure, functional groups, and magnetic properties of as-prepared composites were explored using scanning and transmission electron microscope, X-ray diffractometer, Fourier transform infrared spectroscope, X-ray photoelectron spectroscope, zeta potential analyzer, and superconducting quantum interference device. The fabricated composites were then applied to remove antibiotic oxytetracycline from water. The optimal weight ratio of the Mt particles (mean size, 25 μm) to the nZVI particles (size, 60-100 nm) was first determined to be 2:1 (simply denoted as 2Mt-nZVI). Experimental results showed that 99% of 100 mg/L oxytetracycline at pH 5.0 was removed using 0.6 g/L of the 2Mt-nZVI composite and the mineralization reached 70% after 20 min of reaction. Finally, the transformation products and intermediates were detected and identified by a high-resolution liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and the pathways were proposed during the degradation of oxytetracycline over the 2Mt-nZVI composite.
