Experimental evaluation of soapberry seed oil biodiesel performance in CRDI diesel engine.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
Due to the ongoing demand for alternative fuels for CI engines, biodiesel-based research has received support globally. In this study, soapberry seed oil produced by transesterification process to creates biodiesel. It is referred to as BDSS (Biodiesel of Soapberry Seed). According to criteria, the oil qualities are recognized, hence, three different blends and pure diesel were tested in CRDI (Common Rail Direct Injection) engines. The blends descriptions are: 10BDSS (10% BDSS + 90% diesel), 20BDSS (20% BDSS + 80% diesel), and 30BDSS (30% BDSS + 70% diesel). The outcomes of the related tests for combustion, performance, and pollution were contrasted with those achieved using 100% diesel fuel. In this case, the mixing has resulted in worse braking thermal efficiency than diesel and lower residual emissions with greater NOx emissions. The superior results were obtained by 30BDSS, which had BTE of 27.82%, NOx emissions of 1348 ppm, peak pressure of 78.93 bar, heat release rate (HRR) of 61.15 J/deg, emissions of CO (0.81%), HC (11 ppm), and smoke opacity of 15.38%.
