1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

This paper presents a developed analytical technique for risk assessment of colloidal fullerene in surface waters by ultrasonic-assisted dispersive liquid-liquid extraction (UADLLE) and high-performance liquid chromatography ultraviolet-visible detector (HPLC-UV). Fullerene colloidal nanoparticles were synthesised and characterized by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis). Ultrasonication step, disperser solvent, and sodium chloride salt enhance the surface area of fullerene derivative aggregates for better contact and lowers the solubility of fullerene derivative to the aqueous solution, respectively promoting mass transfer of fullerene from aqueous into the organic phase. Several extraction parameters were optimized, and the optimal conditions were established: 5 mL toluene as extraction solvent (2 cycles); 200 mL water sample; 1% sodium chloride salt; 15 min ultrasonication, and 400 μL methanol as disperser solvent. The mean absolute recoveries established in drinking water, wastewater, and river water were 117%, 103%, and 93%, respectively. The proposed analytical technique was linear in the ranges between 0.25 μg L
