Solar-Powered Electrokinetic Filtration using Hierarchical Porous Membranes for the Off-Grid Removal of Ultrafine Contaminants.
Article in Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The removal of ultrafine suspended solids from water remains a critical challenge due to the tradeoffs among permeability, energy consumption, and fouling resistance. Electrokinetic techniques offer a membrane-free alternative; however, they are limited by low throughput, heavy reliance on auxiliary equipment, and technically demanding operations. Herein, a scalable, solar-powered nanoelectrokinetic filtration platform is proposed, which enables the efficient removal of nanoparticles (NPs), organic dyes, and Escherichia coli (E. coli) using micrometer-scale porous membranes. The core component is a hierarchically structured membrane, consisting of a biodegradable cellulose-cotton scaffold coated with ion-exchange resin and Nafion, forming confined microchannels and ion-selective nanochannels that generate stable electrokinetic repulsion under an applied electric field. Powered by a photovoltaic module and operated under gravity-driven flow (<1 kPa), the system achieves >99.9% removal of sub-50-nm particles, including species <10 nm, at high fluxes (>400 L m
