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.
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
Dyes from industrial wastewaters represent one of the most hazardous pollutants as they are not effectively biodegradable. The present work is focused to study the novel properties of keratin-polyamide blend nanofibrous filtration membranes for treating wastewaters containing dye. Keratin protein was extracted from goat hair, a tannery waste through sulphitolysis process. The extracted keratin was blended with polyamide to prepare a nanofibrous membrane through the electrospinning process. The fabricated pristine polyamide and keratin-altered polyamide membranes were characterized and compared for their properties. Effects of solution pH, dye concentration, membrane flux, and membrane capacity have been examined. Very fine nanofibers and enhanced porosity drive the membrane to enhanced flux and higher filtration efficiencies. At pH 2, the dye removal efficiency of the blend membranes was 100, 99, 98, 90, and 83% for 100, 200, 250, 300, and 400 ppm concentrations of dye, respectively. The keratin-polyamide blend membrane exhibited better properties in all aspects. The results of this present investigation indicate that the presence of keratin in filtration membranes is promising for dye removal from the effluents.
