Bacteriostatic and bactericidal clays: an overview.
Review in Environmental geochemistry and health, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
This article aims to draw an overview on the actual knowledge on bacteriostatic and bactericidal natural clays. Particular emphasis is given to the role of clay itself, the action of reduced metals located either in the structure of clay minerals or external to them as constituents of associate minerals, and the definition of the mechanisms of action based on the achievements found in all available studies being carried out so far. The term bactericidal is herein used when a clay or a clay mineral kill the bacteria, whereas the term bacteriostatic is used when those minerals stop bacteria growth and replication. The second part of this article deals with experimental studies on bactericidal natural clay, experience and perspective for the preparation of bactericidal natural clays, interesting on the authors perspective and experience for the preparation of pathogens safe both therapeutic and cosmetic natural mud/natural peloid, and better yet of both therapeutic 87oooand cosmetic peloid itself and designed and engineered peloid. The authors also show how to convert non-antimicrobial clay into antimicrobial one, opening the way in the field of pelotherapy to the preparation of sanitary safe peloids addressed, for instance, to the treatment of rheumatic disabilities, as well as to the preparation of antimicrobial peloids and, in particular, of dermatological ointments, all able to fight infectious skin disorders.
