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

Pockels-based Mueller polarimetry is presented as a novel diagnostic technique for studying time and space-resolved and in-situ the interaction between an organic sample (a layer of onion cells) and non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma. The effect of plasma is complex, as it delivers electric field, radicals, (UV) radiation, non-uniform in time nor in space. This work shows for the first time that the plasma-surface interaction can be characterized through the induced electric field in an electro-optic crystal (birefringence caused by the Pockels effect) while at the same moment the surface evolution of the targeted sample is monitored (depolarization) which is attached to the crystal. As Mueller polarimetry allows for separate detection of depolarization and birefringence, it is possible to decouple the entangled effects of the plasma. In the sample three spatial regions are identified where the surface evolution of the sample differs. This directly relates to the spatial in-homogeneity of the plasma at the surface characterized through the detected electric field. The method can be applied in the future to investigate plasma-surface interactions for various targets ranging from bio-films, to catalytic surfaces and plastics/polymers.
