Antimicrobial Particle-Based Novel Sanitizer for Enhanced Decontamination of Fresh Produce.
Article in Applied and environmental microbiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Microbial food safety of raw or minimally processed fresh produce is a significant challenge. The current sanitation processes are effective for inactivation of bacteria in wash water but have limited efficacy (<2 log/g reduction) for inactivation of microbes on the surfaces of fresh produce. This study demonstrates a novel concept to enhance effectiveness of chlorine using a particle-based sanitizer to improve decontamination of fresh produce. In this concept, enhanced effectiveness is achieved by localized high concentration of chlorine bound to the surfaces of silica particles and improved surface contact of microparticles with the produce surface using mechanical shear during a washing process. The results of this study demonstrate that 500 ppm active chlorine can be bound to the surfaces of modified silica particles. These modified particles maintain over 90% of their initial chlorine content during extended storage in aqueous solution and provide improved inactivation of both
