Testing of Chemically Activated Cellulose Fibers as Adsorbents for Treatment of Arsenic Contaminated Water.
Article in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Exposure to different arsenic concentrations (higher than 10 μg/L), either due to the direct consumption of contaminated drinking water or indirectly by using contaminated food is harmful for human health. Therefore, it is important to remove arsenic from aqueous solutions. Among many arsenic removal technologies, adsorption offers a promising solution with a good efficiency, however the material used as adsorbent play a very vital role. The present investigation evaluated the behavior of two cellulose-based adsorbent materials, i.e., viscose fibers (V) and its TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl) derivative, obtained by using the well-established TEMPO-mediated protocol (VF). Due to the known arsenic affinity for Fe ions the two materials were later doped with it. This was done after a preliminary functionalization with di-2-ethylhexyl phosphoric acid (DEHPA), to obtain two materials: V-DEHPA-Fe and VF-DEHPA-Fe. Arsenic adsorption is known to be pH dependent (between 6 and 8); therefore, the optimal pH range for As(V) adsorption has been established. In order to evaluate the adsorption mechanism for both the synthesized materials, the influence of contact time, temperature and initial concentration was evaluated. Langmuir, Freundlich and Sips equilibrium isotherm models were used in order to determine the ability of the model to describe As(V) adsorption process. The maximum adsorption capacity of the material V-DEHPA-Fe was 247.5 µg As(V)/g with an As(V) initial concentration of 5 mg/L and for the material VF-DEHPA-Fe it was 171.2 µg As(V)/g with initial concentration of 5 mg/L.
