Parametric Studies of Polyacrylamide Adsorption on Calcite Using Molecular Dynamics Simulation.
Article in Molecules (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
This study investigates the efficacy of polyacrylamide-based polymers, specifically hydrolysed polyacrylamide (HPAM), in reducing solids production within carbonate reservoirs. Building on our earlier simulation approach, molecular simulations were conducted to examine how these polymers adsorb onto calcite, the main mineral found in carbonate formations. The adsorption process was affected by several factors, including polymer molecular weight, charge density, temperature, and salinity. Generally, increased molecular weight, charge density, and temperature resulted in higher adsorption rates. The effect of salinity was more nuanced, as salt-bridging and charge-screening effects created competing influences. The simulation outcomes correspond closely with experimental results, offering valuable insights for designing and optimizing polymer-based strategies aimed at controlling solids production in carbonate reservoirs.
