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

Textile industries generate large volumes of wastewater, containing high concentrations of organic pollutants, dissolved solids, and suspended particles, requiring eco-friendly and cost-effective treatment technologies. This study developed a gravity-driven bio-based batch filtration system using sugarcane bagasse fiber and coconut fiber to investigate textile wastewater treatment performance and economic feasibility. Five bagasse-to-coconut fiber ratios (100:0, 0:100, 50:50, 75:25, and 25:75) were evaluated in a multilayer filtration system. Scanning electron microscope and Fourier transform infrared analyses were performed to characterize the fiber morphology and adsorption-active functional groups before and after filtration. Among all filter configurations, the 50:50 fiber ratio demonstrated the best overall performance, achieving removal efficiencies of 79.33% for biological oxygen demand, 75.75% for chemical oxygen demand, 80.00% for total dissolved solids (TDS), 46.51% for turbidity, 77.45% for electrical conductivity (EC), and 4.82% for pH after a single filtration cycle, while maintaining pH within the Bangladesh Department of Environment permissible range. Sequential treatment cycles further enhanced treatment efficiency, achieving an overall removal of 89.17% for TDS, 81.52% for turbidity, and 88.63% for EC after five filtration cycles. Economic evaluation demonstrated a unit treatment cost of approximately 90.71 BDT/m
