A comprehensive review on the capability of graphene quantum dots-based/involved platforms for the detection of inorganic ions.
Review in RSC advances, 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
Substantial contamination in the ecosystem (particularly, in waterbodies) due to the disposal of hazardous substances from superfluous industrial byproducts and other human activities is one of the most serious environmental issues. Although water is among the five basic elements required for all the living beings, it is continuously becoming unsafe and unhygienic for the purpose of drinking and household activities. The presence of heavy metal ions and many toxic anions (beyond their permissible concentration) significantly contributes to water pollution. Therefore, it is judicious to detect inorganic ions in order to avoid adverse situations related to the human health and ecological imbalance. Owing to the easy affordability and unique properties of zero-dimensional graphene quantum dots (GQDs), particularly, high/tunable fluorescence, electronic conductivity, electrocatalytic activity, chemiluminescence (CL) and electrochemiluminescence (ECL), GQDs-based/involved platforms are potentially deployed for the detection of inorganic ions with reasonable selectivity and sensitivity. The versatility of these sensing probes includes the possibility of detection through fluorimetric, colorimetric, electrochemical, CL, and ECL techniques. This review aims to comprehensively inspect the deployment of GQDs-based/involved sensors for the recognition of inorganic ions, highlighting different sensing approaches with the development of performance metrics and providing insights into their underlying mechanisms. Furthermore, this collective outlook on GQDs-based/involved sensors for inorganic ions may help to identify shortcomings in the existing knowledge and influence/inspire new research with better prospects.
