Biosorption of cesium and strontium from aqueous solution by Aspergillus flavus biomass.

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
This study investigates the potential biosorption of Aspergillus flavus biomass for the removal of Cs⁺ and Sr²⁺ ions from aqueous solutions. The biosorbent was characterized using FTIR, SEM-EDS, BET surface area analysis, and thermal stability tests, revealing key functional groups (-OH, -COOH, -NH₂) and a surface area of 9.65 m²/g. Batch adsorption experiments demonstrated that pH significantly influenced uptake, with optimal removal at pH 5 for Sr²⁺ (~ 90%) and pH 8 for Cs⁺ (~ 27%). Kinetic studies followed the pseudo-second-order model (R² > 0.97), indicating chemisorption dominance. Equilibrium data fitted the Freundlich isotherm, suggesting multilayer adsorption, with maximum capacities (qₘₐₓ) of 211.1 mg⋅g
