Upcycling battery waste into Zn-BTC metal organic framework for dual applications in electrochemical sensing of uric acid and antibacterial applications.
Article in RSC advances, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
This study reports the sustainable synthesis of a zinc-based metal-organic framework (Zn-BTC MOF) using zinc, extracted from waste dry cell batteries. A three-step route involving zinc recovery, hydroxide precipitation, and solvothermal coordination with 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (BTC) led to the formation of crystalline Zn-BTC. Comprehensive characterization, utilizing techniques such as XRD, FTIR, Raman, FESEM, TEM, XPS, EDS, and TGA-DSC, confirmed the formation of a highly ordered Zn-BTC MOF framework structure with nanoscale morphology and thermal stability. Zn-BTC MOF exhibited promising electrochemical performance in detecting uric acid (UA), with a wide linear detection range (0-200 μM), low detection limit (1.43 μM), and high electroactive surface area (0.16 cm
