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

purposeThe aims of the study were to identify microorganisms, including those in the VBNC state, inhabiting porous surfaces in oral surgery offices and to assess the biocidal effectiveness and impact of 300 ppm vaporised hydrogen peroxide (VHP) for 20 min on decontaminated materials.

methodsFrom the surfaces of textured armrests of dental chairs, pinewood doors and window frames and cotton medical aprons, 30 swabs were taken with moistened sponges. The identification of isolated microorganisms was performed using molecular methods with MALDI-TOF MS, DNA Sanger sequencer and Illumina MiSeq. To evaluate the impact of VHP decontamination (independent variable) on the number of microorganisms (response variable) ANOVA and LSD tests were used. After application of 10 processes of VHP decontamination, changes in the properties of the materials were assessed using FTIR spectroscopy, SEM microscopy and XPS spectrometry.

resultsThe concentration of microorganisms was 10

conclusionsVHP decontamination at a concentration of 300 ppm for 20 min can be used for the holistic disinfection of air, surfaces and equipment in oral surgery offices.
