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

Low-energy electron irradiation is an emerging alternative technology for attenuated or complete pathogen inactivation with respect to medical, biotechnological, and pharmaceutical applications. Pathogen inactivation by ionizing radiation depends mainly on the absorbed electron dose. In low-energy electron irradiation processes, determination of the absorbed electron dose is challenging due to the limited, material-dependent penetration depth of the accelerated electrons into the matter. In general, there are established dosimetry systems to evaluate the absorbed dose under dry irradiation conditions. However, there is no system for precise dose monitoring of low-energy irradiation processes in liquids or suspensions so far. Therefore, in this study three different bacterial species were investigated as biological dose indicators, especially in the range of low doses (< 6.5 kGy) in aqueous solutions or suspensions.
