Adsorption of Bisphenol-A by banana biochar: kinetic, isotherms and thermodynamics.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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 continuous release of chemical substances like endocrine disruptor bisphenol-A (BPA) can cause harmful health and environmental effects in humans, wildlife and aquatic organisms. This study demonstrates the use of raw and biochar (treated) banana peel adsorbents for the elimination of bisphenol-A in a batch process. The sorption data revealed that optimum adsorption was attained at a pH of 8.0, initial BPA concentration of 240 mg/L, dosage of 0.4 g, and contact time of 200 min and 150 min for raw and treated sample, respectively. From the kinetic study, the pseudo-second-order model (PSOM) best describes treated peels data, indicating chemisorption mechanism, while pseudo-first-order model (PFOM) best explained the kinetic data for the raw sample pointing to physisorption mechanism. The Langmuir model best described the raw banana peel with maximum monolayer adsorption capacities (Q
