Column study using modified banana pseudo stem as adsorbent for removal of Pb (II).

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
Eco-friendly adsorbents such as banana pseudo stem play a fundamental role in the removal of heavy metal elements from the wastewater. Key water resources and chemical industries have been encountering difficulties in removing heavy metal elements using existing conventional methods. The lead-removal process is currently a challenging task for environmental scientists and engineers in terms of cost, effluent disposal, and safety concerns. Hence, this work demonstrates the adsorption of Pb (II) onto modified banana pseudo stem (MBPS) powder as a potential adsorbent to treat different effluents. A characterization of modified banana pseudo-stem powder was performed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy which confirms the material. Experiments carried out using a column process for the removal of lead (II) from an aqueous solution at a fixed concentration of 50 ppm, pH 6 and contact time 120 min. The BET surface area of MBPS was found to be 7.27 m
