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
Contamination of underground water by uranium (U) and other heavy metals is a growing concern. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have shown great potential as an adsorbent material for heavy metal removal. This study synthesized a novel MSN using surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) and evaluated its effectiveness for removing uranium from aqueous solutions under different conditions. The particle size was reduced to 150-240 nm to enhance adsorption. Fourier transform infrared characterization and thermogravimetric analysis confirmed successful synthesis and modification. Results showed that the MSN adsorbent was highly effective in removing U, with a removal rate of 85.35% at 120 min. Temperature had a significant impact, with the highest removal rate of 96.7% achieved at 25 °C and a U concentration of 10 ppm. The highest removal rate of 91.89% was achieved at a pH of 6 and a U concentration of 50 ppm. The highest removal rate of 95.16% was achieved at 25 mg and a U concentration of 50 ppm at room temperature for 60 min. The MSNs also showed a 58.27% removal rate in a mixture solution at room temperature for 60 min. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of the MSN adsorbent for removing U under different conditions.
