Recent Progress in Adsorption Removal of Heavy Metal Ions from Wastewater Using Biomass-Based Materials.
Review in Gels (Basel, Switzerland), 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
Heavy metal pollution poses a serious threat to water resource security and ecological health, due to its high toxicity, persistence, and bioaccumulation. Accordingly, it is crucial to develop efficient, low-cost, and environmentally friendly adsorption materials. Biomass-based materials, as a widely available, renewable, and low-cost natural organic resource, exhibit significant advantages for water pollutant adsorption and removal due to their unique porous structures and abundant active functional groups. This review systematically summarizes the classification strategies, fabrication methodologies, and adsorption performances of biomass-based materials for aqueous heavy metal ion removal. Key factors governing adsorption behavior, including solution pH, temperature, initial ion concentration, and adsorbent dosage, are critically analyzed to elucidate structure-property-performance correlations. Particular emphasis is placed on the underlying adsorption mechanisms, encompassing physical adsorption, surface complexation, ion exchange, electrostatic interactions, and synergistic interfacial effects. By integrating recent advances in material design and mechanistic understanding, this review provides a comprehensive framework bridging fundamental research and practical implementation, and highlights future opportunities for engineering next-generation sustainable biomass adsorbents toward efficient heavy metal ion decontamination.
