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 paper presents original results from the unique analysis of the porous structure of activated carbons (ACs) produced through the chemical activation of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polyacrylonitrile (PAN), as well as from a physical mixture of both polymers. An advanced method of adsorbent surface analysis-more specifically, the new method of numerical clustering-based adsorption analysis regarding the surface heterogeneity, pore geometry and adsorption energy distribution parameters-allowed us to obtain information about the porous structure of the ACs from the synthetic polymers mentioned above. As the results showed, ACs obtained with PAN were characterised by a first adsorbed layer with the highest volume. When the surface heterogeneity, highly desirable in most advanced adsorption processes, is taken into account, the materials with the best surface properties in both potassium carbonate (K
