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

backgroundThe aim of this study was to investigate the removal of Cr (VI) using Green-Graphene Nanosheets (GGN) synthesized from rice straw.

methodsSynthesis of the GGN was optimized using response surface methodology and central composite design (CCD). The effect of two independent variables including KOH-to-raw rice ash (KOH/RRA) ratio and temperature on the specific surface area of the GGN was determined. To have better removal of Cr (VI), GGN was modified using the grafting amine group method. In the Cr (VI) removal process, the effects of four independent variables including initial Cr (VI) concentration, adsorbent dosage, contact time, and initial solution pH were studied.

resultsThe results of this study showed that the optimum values of the KOH/RRA ratio and temperature for the preparation of GGN were 10.85 and 749.61 °C, respectively. The maximum amount of SSA obtained at optimum conditions for GGN was 551.14 ± 3.83 m 2 /g. The optimum conditions for Cr (VI) removal were 48.35 mg/L, 1.46 g/L, 44.30 min, and 6.87 for Cr (VI) concentration, adsorbent dosage, contact time, and pH, respectively. Based on variance analysis, the adsorbent dose was the most sensitive factor for Cr (VI) removal. Langmuir isotherm (R2 = 0.991) and Pseudo-second-order kinetic models (R2 = 0.999) were the best fit for the study results and the Q max was 138.89 mg/g.

conclusionsIt can be concluded that the predicted conditions from the GGN synthesis model and the optimum conditions from the Cr (VI) removal model both agreed with the experimental findings.
