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

Iron nanoparticles (Fe-NPs) have emerged as promising additives for enhancing biogas production through anaerobic digestion (AD). This review comprehensively examines Fe-NP synthesis methods (chemical, physical, and biological), their applications in biogas systems, and their effects on microbial communities. Analysis of recent studies reveals that Fe-NPs can increase methane production by 0.166 to 7 times compared to controls, with optimal concentrations varying from 5.5 to 4330 mg/L depending on nanoparticle type and substrate. Zero-valent iron nanoparticles (nZVI) at 20 mg/L achieved 1.96-fold enhancement, while Fe
