Polysulfone/MMT Clay Mixed Matrix Membranes for Efficient Diclofenac Removal and Improved Antifouling Performance in Wastewater Treatment.

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
Due to industrialization and globalization, water sources are increasingly contaminated with drugs. Among the various methods available, adsorption remains one of the most widely used techniques for drug removal. This work was to develop polysulfone (PSF) membranes integrated with montmorillonite (MMT) clay. The fabricated membranes were subsequently evaluated for their performance in removing diclofenac (DCF) from aqueous solutions. The membranes were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), contact angle measurements, as well as chemical and mechanical tests. Adding MMT at 1.5 and 2 wt% improved both hydrophilicity and mechanical strength. The natural hydrophilicity of MMT also accelerates the non-solvent/solvent exchange during phase inversion, resulting in higher porosity. These structural and surface modifications increased water permeability (16.36 L·m
