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

Mastering the adsorption and diffusion behavior of actinide metal ions on graphene oxide at the molecular level is of great guiding significance for its application in the treatment of low radioactive wastewater. The highly dense oxygen-containing functional groups on the graphene oxide surface can tightly anchor metal ions and regulate a precise interlayer spacing for membrane separation. Through multiscale theoretical calculations, we found that graphene oxide does have strong adhesion to actinide metals, but this attraction does not directly come from the interaction between functional groups of graphene oxide and actinide ions but actually from the strong hydrogen bond binding effect. Taking advantage of the binding effect difference between the actinide ion's spherical coordination field and the actinyl ion's equatorial coordination field, graphene oxide can act as a molecule sieving separation membrane for these two types of ions. In addition, we found that graphene oxide has the ability to oxidize actinide metal ions and thus can serve as both an adsorbent material and a valence state regulator. Our research suggests that graphene oxide is a promising membrane material for low radioactive wastewater treatment.
