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
In this study, we pioneered a bio-inorganic hybrid material by combining montmorillonite (MMT) with Pleurotus ostreatus mycelium. Moving beyond routine extraction phases, we focused on the preparation, physicochemical characterization, and application of this unique biohybrid for rotating-disk sorptive extraction (RDSE). The engineered material successfully blends the structured mesoporosity and high surface area of pristine clay with the dense, functionalized biopolymer network of fungal hyphae. By deconvoluting the sorptive mechanism, we found that estrogen retention is driven by a highly cooperative network of non-covalent forces. At a near-neutral wastewater pH (6.9-7.2), where the target steroids remain neutral, mass transfer is governed by localized hydrogen bonding with both clay edge sites (Si-OH, Al-OH) and cell-wall functionalities (NH
