Biosorption of ketoprofen and diclofenac by living cells of the green microalgae Chlorella sp.
Article in Environmental science and pollution research international, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
There is a growing interest for the removal of different pharmaceuticals from water owing to their toxicity to various organisms. The present study investigated the use of living cells of the green alga Chlorella sp. in the short-term adsorption of ketoprofen (KET) and diclofenac (DIF) from aqueous solutions. The bioremoval efficiency of both KET and DIF was highly dependent on various parameters such as time, pH, algal dosage, and drug concentration. The adsorption efficiencies of both KET and DIC were maximized at pH 6. The biosorption of KET was better described by pseudo-first-order kinetics, while DIC obeyed the pseudo-second-order model. The maximum adsorption capacities of KET and DIF were attained as 0.328 and 0.429 mg g
