Removal of ciprofloxacin from water by graphene oxide-like carbon nanosheets derived from onion peel.
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 2 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 widespread presence of ciprofloxacin (CIP) in aquatic environments poses significant risks to public health and ecosystems due to its role in promoting antibiotic resistance. Addressing this challenge, we developed graphene oxide-like carbon nanosheets (CNSs) from onion peel waste as a low-cost and sustainable adsorbent for efficient CIP removal from water, where the cost savings originate from free raw materials and an energy-efficient synthesis, thereby valorizing waste and reducing pollutants as key sustainability indicators. The CNSs, synthesized via pyrolysis and ultrasonic exfoliation, exhibited abundant oxygen-containing functional groups and a negatively charged surface (zeta potential: -20.9 mV), with TEM confirming nanosheet structure. Under optimized conditions (pH 7, 0.4 g L
