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
This research focuses on the utilization of nano glauconite clay as an environmentally friendly sorbent for the removal of cationic dyes, particularly Methylene Blue (MB), from polluted water. The glauconite clay was sourced from the El Gidida region of Egypt and subjected to grinding in a laboratory-type ball mill to ensure homogeneity and increase the active sites available for the adsorption process. The resulting ball milled nano clay (BMNC) was characterized using techniques such as X-ray fluorescence (XRF), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The concentration of MB dye was monitored using UV-Vis spectroscopy to assess the adsorption capacity of BMNC under various conditions including pH, time, dose, and temperature. The optimal conditions for the adsorption process were determined to be a pH range of 7-8, a contact time of 60 min, and a dose of 200 ppm, resulting in an adsorption capacity of 128 mg/g. This process demonstrated both low cost and high speed. The adsorption mechanism of MB on the BMNC surface was evaluated through kinetics, adsorption isotherms, and thermodynamics. The experimental data indicated an endothermic, spontaneous, and thermodynamically favourable adsorption process, which was further supported by simulated modelling results using Forcite program. The in-silico data aligned well with the experimental findings. Additionally, the study assessed the interference of salts, metal ions, and other dyes on MB adsorption onto BMNC, showing promising results. These findings strongly support the effectiveness of our sorbent substrate under challenging conditions.
