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
Andesite was employed to effectively extract mercury(II) in an aqueous solution. After evaluating its characteristics, andesite was characterized by applying modern techniques such as BET and TGA methods. The study employed SEM and TEM measurements to analyze the variation in the surface shape and crystallinity of the metal due to adsorption. Using the EDX process, the chemical composition, weight, and atomic percentage of each element of andesite were determined. FTIR techniques were also used to confirm the TEM-EDX findings. Zeta potential was estimated. Cycles of regeneration and desorption have been examined. 99.03% was the highest uptake percentage. Adsorbent quantity (0.0025-0.05) g/L, contact time (5-60) min, pH (2-10), temperature (25-60) °C, and dose (0.0027, 0.0044, 0.0125, 0.0155, and 0.0399) mg/L all affect the amount of removal that increases with the increase in contact time, pH, dose, and temperature but drops as the metal ion concentration rises. The ideal values for contact time, pH, metal ion concentration, dose, and temperature were found to be, respectively, 30 min, 0.0155 mg/l, 0.02 g/l, and 40 °C. The calculation of thermodynamic parameters, including ΔH, ΔG, and ΔS, was imperative in establishing that the mechanism of heavy metal adsorption on andesite was endothermic, exhibiting a physical nature that escalated with temperature rise. The Freundlich adsorption equation's linear form is matched by the adsorption of mercury(II) on andesite; constant n was 1.85, 1.06, 1.1, and 1.1, whereas the Langmuir constant q
