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

Membrane separation has become a key technology for advanced water purification and control of emerging contaminants because of its high separation efficiency, low chemical demand, and ease of integration. However, organic membrane fouling induced by the coupling of dissolved organic matter and coexisting metal ions remains a major obstacle to stable and efficient membrane operation. This review focuses on metal ion-mediated formation of organic aggregates in the bulk solution and their governing role in membrane fouling behavior. The review summarizes how metal ions regulate organic aggregate formation through distinct dominant mechanisms. Na
