1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

This work explores the effect of humic acids (HA) fractionation on the sorption ability of a natural zeolite (NYT)-HA adduct. HA were extracted from compost, fractionated via the pH fractionation method, and characterized via UV-Vis spectroscopy and gel permeation chromatography. The HA samples were immobilized onto NYT via thermal treatment. The resulting adducts (NYT-HA) were tested for their ability to remove methylene blue (MB) from an aqueous solution. It was found that the sorption performance of NYT-HA strongly depends on the chemical characteristics of humic acids. Sorption capacity increased with the molecular weight and hydrophobicity degree of the HA fractions. Hydrophobic and π-π interactions are likely the primary mechanisms by which MB interacts with HA. The sorption kinetic data conform to the pseudo-second-order model. The Freundlich isotherm model adequately described the sorption equilibrium and revealed that the uptake of MB onto NYT-HA is endothermic in nature.
