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

In this study, the molecular adsorption mechanism of methylene blue dye on ulexite and the adsorption kinetics and thermodynamics were investigated. Ulexite is a boron mineral containing boron, sodium and calcium. The regression coefficients of Langmuir isotherm, Freundlich isotherm and Dubinin-Radushkevich (DR) isotherms were compared. Adsorption of methylene blue on to ulexite was investigated thermodynamically. The most appropriate kinetic model was determined using pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order and intraparticle diffusion kinetic models. The molecular adsorption mechanism of methylene blue on ulexite was schematically explained. The adsorption results showed that maximum adsorption capacity obtained from DR isotherm model was 1180 mg/g. When compared with studies in the literature, this maximum adsorption capacity was found to be very high. Methylene blue was successfully separated from aqueous solutions with very high adsorption capacity using ulexite.
