Solar-driven oil spill recovery using a carbon dots/loofah sponge.
Article in RSC advances, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Oil spills are considered serious environmental disasters, causing various long-term negative impacts on human and marine life. Therefore, the development of absorbent materials to treat oil spills in a safe and environmentally friendly way is essential. Loofah is a widely available natural product in tropical countries, and due to its low cost and biodegradability, it is used in numerous applications, including food, handicrafts, and cleaning sponges. Owing to its superior porosity, loofah shows potential as a sorbent for oil spill treatment. Herein, we report a hydrophobic cellulose sponge based on a plasma-treated/carbon dots/loofah sponge (P-CLS), which is prepared through a carbon dot (CD) coating process, followed by a nonthermal plasma treatment. The surface temperature of P-CLS can reach up to 55 °C under 1 kW m
