Advancement in photocatalytic degradation of ciprofloxacin: mechanisms, materials and environmental remediation.
Review in RSC advances, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Ciprofloxacin (CIP), a widely used fluoroquinolone antibiotic, poses significant ecological risks due to its persistence in water systems and contribution to antibiotic resistance. Traditional wastewater treatment methods are ineffective in completely degrading CIP, necessitating more advanced solutions. This review explores the potential of photocatalytic degradation as a promising approach for CIP removal, focusing on the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) using various photocatalysts. The influence of operational parameters such as catalyst type, CIP dosage, pH, temperature, and light source on degradation efficiency is critically evaluated. Recent advancements in visible-light-responsive photocatalysts and hybrid treatment systems are discussed, along with their performance metrics. The paper concludes with future directions for developing novel materials and integrated systems to enhance environmental remediation, offering a comprehensive evaluation of the photocatalytic degradation process of CIPs.
