Plasma Medicine: A Field of Applied Redox Biology.
Review in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04886323 (Effect of Cold Atmospheric Plasma on Malassezia Folliculitis), which is not on this map. Cited by 123 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.

Abstract
Plasma medicine comprises the application of physical plasma directly on or in the human body for therapeutic purposes. Three most important basic plasma effects are relevant for medical applications: i) inactivation of a broad spectrum of microorganisms, including multidrug-resistant pathogens, ii) stimulation of cell proliferation and angiogenesis with lower plasma treatment intensity, and iii) inactivation of cells by initialization of cell death with higher plasma treatment intensity, above all in cancer cells. Based on own published results as well as on monitoring of relevant literature the aim of this topical review is to summarize the state of the art in plasma medicine and connect it to redox biology. One of the most important results of basic research in plasma medicine is the insight that biological plasma effects are mainly mediated via reactive oxygen and nitrogen species influencing cellular redox-regulated processes. Plasma medicine can be considered a field of applied redox biology.
