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.

Abstract
The modification of an MB-2 bipolar ion exchange membrane with chromium (III) hydroxide was carried out by a chemical method, namely, by the sequential treatment of the membrane with a solution of chromium (III) salt and alkali. Data on the morphology, phase, and chemical composition of the modified membrane were obtained using scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive analysis. In particular, it was shown that the modifier was distributed in a layer 30-50 microns thick at the boundary of the cation- and anion-exchange layers of the bipolar membrane. The electrochemical behavior of the modified membrane in the process of sodium sulfate conversion was studied by measurements of the following characteristics: the current efficiency of the acid and base, the energy consumption of the process, and the degree of contamination of the target products with salt ions. It was shown that the resulting membrane has an alkali and acid yield of 61% and 57%, respectively. This is higher than the same yields for the industrial unmodified MB-2 membrane (38% and 30%). The results of this study demonstrated that the modified samples allowed obtaining a higher yield of acid and base, reducing the content of salt ions in the target products and also reducing the electricity consumption for obtaining a unit of the target product. The concentration dependences of the electrical conductivity of the MK-40 heterogeneous ion-exchange membrane, which is a cation-exchange layer of MB-2, in sodium sulfate solutions before and after its modification with chromium (III) oxide were obtained. A decrease in the specific electrical conductivity of the membrane with the introduction of a modifier was established. A quantitative assessment of the influence of the modifier on the current flow, volume fraction, and spatial orientation of the conductive phases of MK-40 was carried out using an extended three-wire model for the description of the model parameters of ion-exchange materials. When a modifying additive was introduced into MK-40, the fraction of the current passing through the inner solution and the intergel phase decreased. This was due to the substitution of part of the free solution in the pore volume by the modifier. A variant of the practical application of electrodialysis with the chromium-modified bipolar ion-exchange membranes is recommended.
