Inverse Tesla Valve as Micromixer for Water Purification.
Article in Micromachines, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Contaminated water has remained an unsolved problem for decades, particularly when the contamination derived from heavy metals. A possible solution is to mix the contaminated water with magnetic nanoparticles so that an adsorption process can take place. In that frame, Tesla valve micromixer and Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles were selected to perform simulations for encounter maximum mixing efficiency. These simulations focus on inlet velocities ratios between contaminated water and nanoparticles and inlet rates of nanoparticles. The maximum mixing efficiency was 44% for the inverse double Tesla micromixer found for the combination of Fe3O4 nanoparticles as the inlet rate and with inlet velocity ratios of VpVc=10.
