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

Efficient uranium capture from wastewater is essential for environmental remediation and sustainable nuclear energy, yet current adsorption and photocatalytic approaches remain limited by insufficient active sites, charge recombination, and hydrophobicity. Herein, a defect-engineered pyrene-based covalent organic framework (TP-PYTO-SA) is reported, synthesized from 2,4,6-triformylphloroglucinol (TP) and 2,7-diaminopyrene-4,5,9,10-tetraone (PYTO) with strategic salicylaldehyde (SA) incorporation. The introduced phenolic hydroxyl groups of SA improve hydrophilicity and offer additional uranyl binding sites, while rational defect density optimization (20%) generates localized electron traps. Concurrently, the electron-donating effect of phenolic hydroxyl groups establishes a built-in electric field, which significantly facilitates charge separation and enables a precisely tailored bandgap of 1.70 eV. Under standard AM 1.5G solar irradiation, TP-PYTO-SA
