Fungal Biodegradation of Amlodipine and Lisinopril by Penicillium citrinum: Towards a Sustainable Approach to Pharmaceutical Wastewater Treatment.
Article in Current microbiology, 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
Concerns are rising globally about the contamination caused by pharmaceutical waste, where improper disposal of unused medications can harm the environment and pose risks to public health. Household pharmaceutical waste needs careful management to mitigate its impact, as medicines disposed in sinks or flushed down in toilets can end up in sewage systems and eventually contaminate waterways. This study aims to address these concerns by investigating the degradation of most commonly used drugs for hypertension amlodipine besylate and lisinopril, using Penicillium citrinum. The fungal isolate tolerated 100 mg L
