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

Although membrane technology has been widely applied in water treatment, membrane fouling is an inevitable issue that has largely limited its application. Benefiting from the advantages of green power, easy integration and low chemical consumption, electrocatalytic membrane (ECM) technology received attention, using it to enable electrically driven self-cleaning performance recently, making it highly desirable for sustainable fouling control. In this work, we comprehensively summarized the conventional (e.g., carbonaceous materials, metal and metal oxide) and emerging (e.g., metal-organic framework and MXene) materials for the fabrication of an ECM. Then the fabrication methods and operating modes of an ECM were emphasized. Afterwards, the application of different ECM materials in membrane fouling control was highlighted and the corresponding mechanism was revealed. Based on existing research findings, we proposed the challenges and future prospects of ECM materials for practical application. This study provides enlightening knowledge into the development of ECM materials for sustainable fouling control.
