Harnessing synergistic effects in porous carbon/Co-ZnO heterojunction for enhanced visible-light photocatalytic removal of bisphenol A.
Article in RSC advances, 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
Endocrine-disrupting contaminants, particularly bisphenol A (BPA), are prevalent in aquatic environments, posing severe ecological and health risks that demand efficient remediation strategies. Photocatalysis has emerged as a promising enhanced oxidation technology for the mitigation of such recalcitrant organic pollutants. Herein, we report the hydrothermal synthesis of a CCAC/Co-ZnO nanocomposite, achieved by anchoring cobalt doped ZnO nanoparticles onto activated carbon obtained from Croton caudatus biomass. Characterization studies (XRD, SEM, EDS, HR-TEM, XPS, BET surface area, PL and UV-Vis DRS) validated the optimized nanostructure, and photocatalytic evaluations showed 99.67% BPA breakdown within 60 min under visible light irradiation at optimal conditions. The reaction obeyed pseudo-first-order kinetics (
