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
In this research, activated carbon from banana peel (BPAC) was prepared by calcination (600 °C) method. Nano composites MO@BPAC (MO=NiO, CuO and ZnO) were prepared and then were characterized by XRD, FTIR, FESM, EDX, BETand TGA methods. Formation of MO@BPAC nanocomposites was confirmed by analysis methods. The XRD patterns showed formation of nanocomposites did not change crystalline phase of metal oxides. TGA analysis also showed the MO@BPAC had high thermal stability to 780 °C. Removal of 2-nitrophenol by MO@BPAC nanocomposites was studied. The optimum contact time of 80 min for NiO@BPAC, 100 min and 120 min for ZnO@BPAC and CuO@BPAC was observed. The order of percent removal of 2-nitrophenol by nanocomposites was as follow: NiO@BPAC > CuO@BPAC > ZnO@BPAC. The maximum removal of 2-nitrophenol 40 mg L
