Organic buffers act as reductants of abiotic and biogenic manganese oxides.
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 2 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
Proton activity is the master variable in many biogeochemical reactions. To control pH, laboratory studies involving redox-sensitive minerals like manganese (Mn) oxides frequently use organic buffers (typically Good's buffers); however, two Good's buffers, HEPES and MES, have been shown to reduce Mn(IV) to Mn(III). Because Mn(III) strongly controls mineral reactivity, avoiding experimental artefacts that increase Mn(III) content is critical to avoid confounding results. Here, we quantified the extent of Mn reduction upon reaction between Mn oxides and several Good's buffers (MES, pK
