Characterization of bismuth-based photocatalyst for microcystin-LR degradation and mechanism: a critical review.
Review in Royal Society open science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 utilization of bismuth (Bi)-based photocatalysts for the degradation of microcystin-LR (MC-LR) has gained significant attention in recent years owing to their promising photocatalytic properties. This paper critically reviews the characterization and mechanisms of Bi-based photocatalysts for MC-LR degradation. Bi-based materials, particularly Bi oxyhalides and Bi oxides, have shown excellent photocatalytic performance in degrading MC-LR under visible-light irradiation. Various synthesis methods, including hydrothermal, solvothermal and template-assisted methods, have been discussed to tailor the morphology and properties of Bi-based photocatalysts for enhanced MC-LR degradation. The photocatalytic mechanisms involved in MC-LR degradation by Bi-based photocatalysts are elucidated, highlighting the roles of reactive oxygen species and electron-hole pairs in the degradation process. Additionally, the factors influencing the photocatalytic activity of Bi-based photocatalysts, such as crystal structure, surface area and doping, are discussed. Challenges and future prospects in developing and applying Bi-based photocatalysts for MC-LR degradation are also addressed, emphasizing the need for further research to optimize their performance for practical environmental remediation applications.
