Adsorption of Fluoroquinolone Antibiotics from Water and Wastewater by Colemanite.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Pharmaceutical residues in water and wastewater have become a worldwide problem with environmental and public health consequences. Antibiotics are of special importance because of the emergence of antibiotic-resistant genes. This study evaluates the adsorptive removal of four common fluoroquinolone antibiotics by using natural colemanite as an alternative adsorbent for the first time. Batch adsorption experiments were conducted for the mixture of fluoroquinolones as well as for individual compounds during the isotherm studies. Adsorption kinetic results indicated that the process followed the pseudo-second-order (PSO) model, while the Langmuir model described the sorption isotherms. The effects of pH and temperature on adsorption performance were determined, and the results indicated that the adsorption was endothermic and spontaneous, with increasing randomness at the solid-liquid interface. The effects of real water and wastewater matrices were tested by using tap water, surface water, and wastewater samples. Reusability experiments based on five adsorption-desorption cycles indicated that the adsorption performance was mostly retained after five cycles. The adsorption mechanism was elucidated based the material characterization before and after adsorption. The results indicate that colemanite can be used as an effective and reusable adsorbent for fluoroquinolone antibiotics as well as for other pollutants with similar physicochemical properties.
