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

Designing cost-effective, eco-friendly, and high-performance nanomaterials remains crucial for advancing next-generation technologies in environmental remediation, energy conversion, and pathogen control. Here, we report the glucose-assisted synthesis of cobalt ferrite (CoFe) nanocomposites (NCs) with tunable Co concentrations (0.025-0.15 M), and utilized for multifunctional applications. XRD confirmed the phase-pure cubic spinel ferrite, and FESEM showed a morphological transition from irregular aggregates to well-defined hexagonal shapes, at the optimal dopant concentration. Among the four batches, CoFe-3 (0.1 M Co) exhibited the highest surface area (74.98 m²/g) with the pore size (16.17 nm), contributing to versatility. CoFe-3 achieved 91.44% efficiency for crystal violet (CV) degradation within 40 min under photo-Fenton conditions and retained 81.73% efficiency after five cycles. Electrochemical studies displayed a high specific capacitance of 614 F/g at 1 A/g with stable cycling over 3000 GCD cycles, indicating battery-type behaviour with promising energy (15.04 Wh/kg) and power densities (217.16 W/kg). Moreover, CoFe-3 displayed significant antifungal activity against Fusarium solani, inducing morphological deformities in hyphae. These results highlight the potential of glucose-engineered CoFe NCs as robust materials for environmental remediation, energy storage, and antifungal applications.
