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

Biochar-based adsorbents synthesized from agricultural wastes have emerged as economical and environmentally sustainable materials for water purification. In this study, coffee shell-derived biochars were synthesized via pyrolysis at 500 and 700 °C, with and without water washing, and comprehensively characterized to evaluate their potential for removing Rhodamine B (RhB) from aqueous solution. Structural and surface analyses indicated that a higher pyrolysis temperature enhanced pore development and aromaticity, whereas water washing effectively removed inorganic ash, thereby exposing additional active sites. Among all samples, water-washed biochar pyrolyzed at 700 °C (WCB700) exhibited the highest surface area (273.6 m
