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

Oil spills are a significant environmental issue for marine wildlife and coastal communities. Cellulose derived from citrus peel industrial waste is an interesting, economical, and eco-friendly advantageous material that was used for the first time with the aim of developing a low-cost and sustainable sorbent for water purification. Citrus peel cellulose was grafted with methyl acrylate to enhance hydrophobicity and favor the oil adsorption in aqueous media. Grafting copolymerization was performed in a simple manner, and the conditions were optimized in terms of monomer concentration, amount of catalyst, time, and temperature. The modified cellulose polymer was obtained in different grafting percentages, with a maximum of 93% grafting. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR),
