Effect of Exhausted Coffee Ground Particle Size on Metal Ion Adsorption Rates and Capacities.
Article in ACS omega, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Spent coffee grounds (SCGs) are common waste products that can be used as low-cost adsorbents to remove contaminants from water. SCGs come in a range of particle sizes based on how they were ground to brew coffee. However, few studies have investigated how SCG particle size influences the adsorption rate and capacities of metal ions. In this study, SCGs were washed under alkaline conditions, creating exhausted coffee grounds (ECGs). ECGs were sieved into four particle size ranges (106-300, 300-500, 500-710, and 710-1000 μm). Monocomponent batch adsorption experiments were conducted with each size fraction using 0.3 mM Pb
