Possibility of using ultraviolet radiation for disinfecting the novel COVID-19.
Article in Photodiagnosis and photodynamic therapy, 2021. 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
The world health organization (WHO) declared novel COVID-19 as a pandemic in March 2020 and as of now has infected hundreds of millions of people across the globe. Here in this report, we propose the importance of light-based technologies in disinfecting the novel COVID-19, present on the surface of phone, plastic surfaces, wallets, watches, cloths. This article identifies the benefits of repurposing ultraviolet light-based strategies to combat the emergence of COVID-19 pandemic. A possible design for the ultraviolet irradiation is also proposed and discussed in short.
