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

Methyl orange (MO) is classified as a recalcitrant and refractory xenobiotic, posing a significant threat to ecosystems due to its high toxicity and persistence. This highlights the urgent need for effective waste management. Biodegradable PVP-CMC hydrogel and PVP-CMC/CNT nanocomposite hydrogel were synthesized by copolymerization of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) via green gamma irradiation at 30 kGy, and 70:30 PVP: CMC, followed by incorporation of CNTs into the polymer matrix to prepare PVP-CMC/CNT. The biodegradation rates of the hydrogel and nanocomposite hydrogel are evaluated by quantifying weight loss in soil over 16 weeks. The biodegradation rates were 87 and 54.8% for the hydrogel and nanocomposite hydrogel, respectively. TGA shows that incorporating CNTs increases thermal stability and reduces overall PVP-CMC hydrogel breakdown by 30%. BET surface area increased to 5.653 m
