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

The increasing use of vanadium causes environmental concern about the toxic effluents. In this study, Fe- pillared bentonite (Fe-PB) was synthesized from a domestic clay sample. Characterization ofiron- pillared bentonite by XRF, XRD, FTIR, BET and SEM, indicated the success of the pillaring operation. According to the results, the Fe-PB adsorbent has better properties compared to the NB. In removal experiments, the vanadium removal percentage has been investigated by varying different main parameters including pH (2-10), initial vanadium ion concentration (50-200 mg/L) and adsorbent dosage (1-6 g/L). A combination of Design-Expert software and response surface methodology was applied to determine the influence of each operational parameter on the vanadium removal percentage, optimum condition to reach maximum vanadium removal. Based on the predicted model, maximum vanadium removal onto Fe-PB was 59.96% on the optimum operational condition as pH = 5.82, initial vanadium concentration = 50 ppm and adsorbent dosage = 6 g/L at 3 h contact time. Equilibrium data were best described by Langmuir model, and analysis of kinetic data demonstrated that the pseudo-second-order model accurately represents the kinetic data.
