Density-Controlled Growth of ZnO Nanowalls for High-Performance Photocatalysts.
Article in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. 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
ZnO nanowires and nanowalls can be fabricated on the glass substrate with a ZnO seed film and low-cost aluminum (Al) foil by the aqueous solution method (ASM), respectively. The different concentrations of ZnO precursors can use to control the densities of ZnO nanowalls. In addition, FESEM, FETEM, EDS, XRD, XPS, and CL were used to evaluate the characteristics of ZnO nanowalls. The ZnO nanowalls exhibited higher photocatalytic efficiency (99.4%) than that of ZnO nanowires (53.3%) for methylene blue (MB) degradation under UVC light irradiation at the ZnO precursors of 50 mM. This result is attributed to ZnO nanowalls with Al-doped, which can improve the separation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs for enhanced photocatalytic activity. In addition, ZnO nanowalls can also reveal higher photocatalytic activity for the degradation of tetracycline capsules (TC) rather than commercial ZnO nanopowder under UVC light irradiation. The superoxide and hydroxyl radicals play essential roles in the degradation of MB and TC solutions by the radical-trapping experiment. Furthermore, the ZnO nanowalls exhibit excellent recycling and reuse capacity for up to four cycles for the degradation of MB and TC. This study highlights the potential use of ZnO nanowalls directly grown on commercial and low-cost Al foil as noble metal-free photocatalysis.
