Selection of Optimal Nanofiltration/Reverse Osmosis (NF/RO) Membranes for the Removal of Organic Micropollutants from Drinking Water.
Article in Membranes, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The growing presence of organic micropollutants (OMPs) in water sources is a major health concern. Successful removal of OMPs from water sources and ensuring the cleanliness of drinking water has become an important topic in recent years. In this study, 15 nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO) commercial membranes were selected and their potential to remove 10 frequently encountered OMPs in drinking water, with systematically different chemical characteristics, was evaluated. To quickly identify the most promising membranes, high throughput dead-end filtrations were initially conducted. Subsequently, the 4 best performing membranes were used in a more relevant high-throughput cross-flow filtration. Membrane performance was evaluated by analyzing OMP concentrations in the feed and retentates of the different membranes using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS). This study identified NF 90 (Dow), NF 270 (Dow), NFX (Synder) and TS80 (Trisep) as membranes with superior performance, with a permeance between 3 and 7 L.m-2.h
