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

This review critically evaluates the recent progress in selectively functionalised graphene and its derivatives for the efficient removal of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from aquatic systems. It begins by outlining the structural, electronic, and surface properties of graphene and its derivatives that underpin their environmental relevance. Functionalisation strategies are categorised into covalent and noncovalent approaches. Covalent modification introduces hydroxyl, epoxy, carboxyl, diazonium, nitrene, and peroxide groups onto the graphene lattice, enabling precise control over surface chemistry and reactivity. Noncovalent functionalisation, based on hydrogen bonding, electrostatic interactions, and π-π stacking, preserves the sp
