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

In this study, a novel cellulose-based adsorbent was developed through a two-step chemical modification process involving commercially available cellulose, sodium periodate as an oxidizing agent, and a coumarin-thiazole derivative as the functionalizing agent. The modified cellulose was successfully prepared and characterized using FTIR analysis confirmed the formation of C = N stretching vibrations with a new peak at 1729 cm⁻¹. FESEM images showed a rougher and more irregular in texture and the EDX confirmed nitrogen and sulfur peaks corroborates the presence of the coumarin-thiazole compound on the cellulosic fiber, but BET analysis determined that COMC exhibited a surface area of 7.933 m²/g, a total pore volume of 0.05976 cm³/g, and an average pore diameter of 25.207 nm. The performance of the modified cellulose was assessed for its efficiency in adsorbing and separating cationic dyes. The resulting material exhibited significant adsorption capabilities, with maximum capacities reaching 142.24 mg/g for methylene blue (MB) and 68.49 mg/g for rhodamine B (RhB). To gain insights into the adsorption behaviour, several operational parameters were systematically investigated, including pH, initial dye concentration, contact time, temperature, and adsorbent dosage. An optimal adsorbent mass of 0.05 g was identified for the effective removal of 80 mg/L MB and 25 mg/L RhB. Adsorption equilibrium data conformed closely to the Langmuir isotherm model (R
