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

Real wastewater contains emerging contaminants that pose problems for flora, fauna, and human health. Conventional wastewater treatment processes, such as the activated sludge process and aerated lagoons, which are commonly used worldwide, cannot remove these contaminants. Therefore, this review analyzes the application of the Fenton process and its variants-homogeneous Fenton, photo-Fenton, Fenton-like, heterogeneous Fenton, and electro-Fenton-to remove various emerging contaminants belonging to different groups, such as pharmaceuticals, personal care products, perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), etc., from wastewater. The review focuses on the reaction mechanisms, application considerations, parameters, and future perspectives of these processes. The compiled information shows that the Fenton process and most of its variants can successfully remove emerging contaminants from different types of aqueous matrices. However, improvements are still needed in terms of performance and application for treating real wastewater on a macro scale.
