Membrane Fouling Behavior of Forward Osmosis for Fruit Juice Concentration.
Article in Membranes, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Forward osmosis (FO) technology has a broad application prospect in the field of liquid food concentration because of the complete retention of flavor components and bioactive substances. Membrane fouling is the main obstacle affecting the FO performance and concentration efficiency. This work systematically investigated the membrane fouling behavior of the FO process for fruit juice concentration elucidated by the models of resistance-in-series, xDLVO theory and FTIR analysis. The results show that the AL-FS mode was more suitable for concentrating orange juice. Increasing the cross-flow rate and pretreatment of feed solutions can effectively improve the water flux and reduce the fouling resistance. The ATR-FTIR analysis revealed that the fouling layer of orange juice was mainly composed of proteins and polysaccharides, and the pretreatment of microfiltration can greatly reduce the content of the major foulant. There was an attractive interaction between the FO membrane and orange juice foulants; by eliminating those foulants, the microfiltration pretreatment then weakened such an attractive interaction and effectively prevented the fouling layer from growing, leading to a lower process resistance and, finally, resulting in a great improvement of concentration efficiency.
