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

Diatom biomass has emerged as a promising biosorbent for removing dye pollutants from dye-bearing wastewater due to its low cost, sustainability, and abundant surface functional groups. Despite interest in algal biosorption, limited studies have compared live and dried biomass across different diatom species. The relative importance of species identity, biomass state, and operating conditions therefore remains unquantified. This study addresses these gaps by investigating the adsorption of three cationic dyes: crystal violet (CV), malachite green (MG), and basic fuchsin (BF), by two diatom species,
