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 widespread, worldwide utilisation of alkaline batteries requires development of proper recycling methods for used batteries, which are considered both as a secondary source of valuable metals and as a threat to the environment (may contain toxic substances). As many separation methods of metal ions from battery leachates are based on the use of substances that require complex synthesis or are not eco-safe, new materials suitable for this purpose are systematically sought. Therefore, in this study, the results of the separation of Ni(II), Zn(II) and Mn(II) ions from alkaline battery leachates using polymer materials (PMs) impregnated with easily synthesised, "green" deep eutectic solvents (DESs) or with ionic liquids (ILs) were presented. Additionally, PMs surface wettability were determined and their chemical compositions were analysed using the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy-attenuated total reflectance (FTIR-ATR) method. Among all PMs synthesised, materials containing DESs (composed of Aliquat 336 or Cyphos IL 101 and diacetamide) performed best in the separation of Ni(II) ions (removal of 93.42% and 80.86%). The application of DES-based PMs for the separation of metal ions from battery leachates is in line with green chemistry principles, and such materials can potentially be used in the processing of e-waste.
