1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Direct lithium extraction (DLE) is emerging as a promising alternative to brine extraction although it requires further processing to obtain high-quality products suitable for various applications. This study focused on developing a process to concentrate and purify complex LiCl solutions obtained through direct lithium extraction (DLE). Two different chemical compositions of complex LiCl solutions were used, dividing the study into three stages. In the first part, lithium was concentrated to 1% by mass by evaporation. In the second, electrodialysis was used to alkalinize the LiCl solution and remove magnesium and calcium impurities under different current densities. The best results obtained were magnesium and calcium removals of 99.8% and 98.0%, respectively, and lithium recoveries of 99% and 96%. In the third stage, the selectivity of two different commercial cationic membranes (Nafion 117 and Neosepta CMS) was evaluated to separate Li
