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

This study investigated the influence of two years of ultrafiltration (UF) on the separation properties of tubular polyvinylidene fluoride membranes used for treating carwash wastewater, particularly with regard to bacterial rejection. Fouling was mitigated by washing the membranes with alkaline cleaning agents (pH > 11.5). Repeated applications of these agents enlarged the membrane pores to approximately 300 nm. This affected bacterial retention, and for feed containing bacteria (determined as colony-forming units, CFU) at a concentration of 3.11 × 10
