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 study presents the synthesis and use of a novel bamboo-derived magnetic activated carbon (BMAC) for the effective removal of cationic and anionic dyes, specifically methylene blue (MB), methyl orange (MO), and sunset yellow (SY), from aqueous solutions. The adsorbent was synthesized using thermal carbonization and subsequent inclusion of magnetic oxide, yielding a porous structure with improved adsorption and magnetic separation properties. Thorough characterization utilizing SEM, EDX, BET, FTIR, XRD, and TGA/DTA validated the creation of a highly porous material including uniformly dispersed magnetic particles and several surface functional groups. Batch adsorption tests were performed to examine the influences of contact time, adsorbent dosage, initial dye concentration, pH, and temperature. The findings indicated rapid adsorption kinetics, with equilibrium reached in around 60-70 min, and adsorption capacity ranked as MB > MO > SY. Augmenting adsorbent dosage enhanced removal efficiency but diminished adsorption capacity per unit mass due to site unsaturation. The maximum adsorption capacities (q
