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

Polysulfone (PSU) membranes are widely recognized for their thermal stability, mechanical strength, and chemical resistance, making them suitable for diverse separation applications. This review highlights recent advances in PSU membrane development, focusing on fabrication techniques, structural modifications, and emerging applications. Phase inversion remains the predominant method for membrane synthesis, allowing precise control over morphology and performance. Functional enhancements through blending, chemical grafting, and incorporation of nanomaterials-such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), carbon nanotubes, and zwitterionic polymers-have significantly improved gas separation, and water purification., In gas separation, PSU-based mixed matrix membranes demonstrate enhanced CO
