1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 environment and human health are greatly suffering as a result of pollution. The textile sector is a significant generator of dyes, which are colored chemicals that are among the most significant water pollutants. In order to produce and optimize green mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) for the treatment of wastewater discharged from the textile industry, propolis (bee glue) was used as an additive to improve the performance of the PES membrane. This work utilized analysis of variance (ANOVA) and response surface methodology (RSM) to optimize the ultrafiltration (UF) process for the treatment of wastewater contaminated with Congo red. Specifically, the primary and interrelated effects of three preparation and operating parameters, additive content, transmembrane pressure, dye feed concentration on the membrane permeate flux, and CR dye rejection using the PES/PRS membrane were examined to optimize the UF process. Transmembrane pressure (1-5 bar), dye concentration (100-300 ppm), and PRS NP content (0-88 mg) were among the factors examined. Optimization results showed that PES/PRS MMMs were the most efficient, with a dye rejection rate of 99.8% and a flux of 48.44 kg m
