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 investigated the removal of Brilliant Blue R (BBR) and Victoria Blue R (VBR), commonly used dyes in the textile industry, from wastewater using the pomegranate peel with an adsorption method. Pomegranate peel was characterized by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer, Emmet ve Teller (BET), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and zeta potential. For both dyes, pH, adsorbent amount, contact time, salt effect, and wastewater parameters were investigated in the batch system, while adsorbent amount and flow rate parameters were investigated in the continuous system. The adsorption results of both dyes on pomegranate peel indicate that they fit the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The adsorption isotherms of both dyes were found to be compatible with the Langmuir isotherm model. In the thermodynamic study, it was determined that the adsorption process was spontaneous (∆G°<0) and exothermic (∆H°<0). It was decided that pomegranate peel is a suitable adsorbent for the adsorption of BBR and VBR dyes. Finally, the adsorption yields for removing BBR and VBR from wastewater using pomegranate peel were 90.38% and 100%, respectively. This result shows that the high adsorption efficiency obtained for both dyes makes it possible for pomegranate peel to be widely applied as an adsorbent in wastewater treatment.
