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

The development of metal-based membranes featuring hydrophilic and oleophobic properties is essential for industrial oil-water separation. Most industrial filters have a cylindrical shape to match other filter components. The modification of the cylindrical surface is much more difficult than the plane surface owing to the challenges of reaction and mass transfer on the tubular surface. To address this issue, we developed an electrochemical deposition method that enables the direct construction of a hydrophilic and underwater oleophobic coating on a cylindrical nickel foam substrate through precise mass transfer control. By optimizing the mass transfer dynamics and employing a stepwise deposition strategy, we achieved uniform functionalization on an industrial-scale cylindrical membrane with a length of 25 cm. The modified membrane exhibits an underwater-oil contact angle exceeding 140° coupled with excellent durability, chemical stability, and thermal resistance. Notably, it demonstrates high separation efficiency, reducing the oil content in water from 1500 to below 200 ppm. This work presents a scalable and reliable fabrication route for high-performance cylindrical oil-water separation membranes with significant industrial potential.
