Diversity and resilience of algae in phycoremediation of carbon, nitrogen, and other pollutants from inland and wastewaters.
Review in iScience, 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
Domestic, industrial, and agricultural wastewater contains higher concentration of pollutants, including carbon and nitrogen nutrients, heavy metals, and harmful chemicals, which significantly impact human health and the ecosystem. In this scenario, phycoremediation is an eco-friendly and economically viable technique that harnesses the diversity of algae to eliminate elevated carbon and nitrogen elements, as well as other contaminants in aquatic systems. Therefore, this review critically examines recent advancements in the utilization of algae for inland water and wastewater treatment applications, with a focus on carbon and nitrogen removal. Furthermore, this study examines the optimization of pollutant removal using different algae, algal consortium, and bacterial consortia for sustainable water management. Additionally, it highlights the feasibility of algae-based treatment, which enhances water quality while potentially producing biomass for biofuels and various high-value products. The challenges, recommendations, and future directions presented in this review can lay a roadmap for effectively selecting a resilient algal strain for phycoremediation of wastewater, thereby promoting environmental sustainability.
