Multifaceted Aquatic Environmental Differences between Nanoplastics and Microplastics: Behavior and Fate.
Review in Environment & health (Washington, D.C.), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Microplastics and nanoplastics are emerging pollutants of concern in the aquatic environment that are causing increasing global environmental and human health problems. Although there has been extensive research on microplastics and nanoplastics, little has been said about the differences in their behavior in the aquatic environment, and many studies have considered them as the same class of hazardous materials; but in fact, microplastics and nanoplastics should be considered as two different types of environmentally hazardous materials. In this review, we propose that microplastics and nanoplastics behave in the aquatic environment in a size-dependent manner and should be distinguished. And we systematically analyzed the differences in the behavior of microplastics and nanoplastics in the aquatic environment in terms of five aspects: 1) distribution behavior; 2) adsorption behavior; 3) reaction with natural colloids; 4) aging and leaching behavior; 5) interaction with organisms. This paper has been written to draw academic attention to the different behaviors of microplastics and nanoplastics in the aquatic environment in order to distinguish between their effects on humans and the environment.
