Effect of Electrode Spacing on the Performance of a Membrane-Less Microbial Fuel Cell with Magnetite as an Additive.
Article in Molecules (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. 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
A microbial fuel cell (MFC) is a bioelectrochemical system that can be employed for the generation of electrical energy under microbial activity during wastewater treatment practices. The optimization of electrode spacing is perhaps key to enhancing the performance of an MFC. In this study, electrode spacing was evaluated to determine its effect on the performance of MFCs. The experimental work was conducted utilizing batch digesters with electrode spacings of 2.0 cm, 4.0 cm, 6.0 cm, and 8.0 cm. The results demonstrate that the performance of the MFC improved when the electrode spacing increased from 2.0 to 6.0 cm. However, the efficiency decreased after 6.0 cm. The digester with an electrode spacing of 6.0 cm enhanced the efficiency of the MFC, which led to smaller internal resistance and greater biogas production of 662.4 mL/g VS
