Calcined Biowaste Durian Peel as a Heterogeneous Catalyst for Room-Temperature Biodiesel Production Using a Homogenizer Device.
Article in ACS omega, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Calcined biowaste durian peel (BDP) contains 86% potassium element as the main compound and has successfully catalyzed the transesterification of palm oil to biodiesel at room temperature. The effect of catalyst weight, molar ratio of palm oil to methanol, reaction time, and rotational speed of the homogenizer device was investigated on biodiesel conversion and yield. The highest biodiesel conversion of 97.4 ± 0.3% was achieved using the following reaction conditions: a catalyst weight of 5 wt %, a molar ratio of palm oil to methanol of 1:15, a reaction time of 10 min, and a rotational speed of 6000 rpm. Unfortunately, calcined BDP could not hold its catalytic activity in the reusability study. The biodiesel conversion was decreased in the second cycle due to the decrease of both catalyst weight and concentration of potassium ions after the first cycle. However, the calcined BDP paired with a homogenizer device could produce biodiesel in a short reaction time and at room temperature.
