Untreated plant waste of the Mediterranean region as bioadsorbent of persistent organic pollutants.

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
The excessive and/or improper use of plant protection products (PPPs) can generate alarming levels of residues in the environment, compromising both soil fertility and food safety. Various organic wastes released in large amounts by agro-industrial activity are currently studied and applied as bioadsorbents for water and soil decontamination. This study explored the capacity of untreated orange peel, olive stones and pistachio shells to adsorb the PPPs oxyfluorfen (OXY), metribuzin (MET) and imidacloprid (IMI), and the xenoestrogen bisphenol A (BPA) from water. The physicochemical, microstructural, and spectroscopic characteristics of the adsorbents were first evaluated using TXRF, SEM and FTIR-ATR techniques. Adsorption kinetics showed that each pollutant was rapidly (∼24 h) retained by all adsorbents according to a pseudo-second order model, which suggested a prevalent chemisorption. Interpretation of the sorption isotherm data with various theoretical equations showed that all molecules on all adsorbents preferentially followed the Freundlich model. Among the materials, olive stones showed the highest adsorbent capacity with K
