Light sources for photodynamic inactivation of bacteria.
Review in Lasers in medical science, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers.
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
Bacteria have an important role in human and animal morbidity, and a great number of them have developed antibiotic resistance. In the past recent years a new way of dealing with this problem has been studied: photodynamic inactivation. This method is based on administration of a photosensitizing substance that fixes itself in the bacterial cell followed by exposure to a light source. In the experiments done by many researchers on photodynamic inactivation of bacteria, both coherent and non-coherent light sources were used. This article is a review of these light sources and of some experimental results obtained by different authors.
