Dispersants as an oil spill clean-up technique in the marine environment: A review.
Review in Heliyon, 2022. 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
Oil is a major source of energy in the industrial world. Exploitation of oil and rigging activities, transportation via sea, and many other mechanical failures lead to oil spills into the marine environment. In view of these, the suitability and effectiveness of oil spill response methods have always been a topical discussion worldwide. It has become necessary, now than ever, for existing spill response methods used to remove oil from the environment to be improved upon and more importantly, develop new response materials that are sustainable and environmentally friendly. There exist surfactants in nature that are non-toxic and biodegradable, which can be explored to produce potential dispersants to help remove oil safely from the surface of marine water. This review comprises of the works and resourceful materials produced by various researchers and agencies in the field of oil spill response, placing emphasis on the use of dispersants in the marine environment.
