Antifouling and Antibacterial Activity of Laser-Induced Graphene Ultrafiltration Membrane.
Article in Membranes, 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
Fouling is a major challenge in membrane-based filtration processes, leading to higher operating and capital costs. Developing new membranes with better fouling resistance has always been a research focus in the membrane field. In particular, designing functional surfaces which mitigate fouling is an effective approach. We successfully fabricated membranes with a graphene functional layer using a single-step laser irradiation known as laser-induced graphene (LIG) on the membrane surface. The LIG ultrafiltration (UF) membranes were prepared by directly lasing poly(ether sulfone) (PES) membrane substrates. Scanning electron microscopy demonstrated the successful ablation of the PES membranes with controlled thickness. Water filtration tests confirmed that the permeance increased by 240% as the laser power increased from 2.4 to 3.2 W; the membrane lased with the highest ablation power (LIG-P8) displayed a high water permeance of ~400 L m
