Article in Frontiers in microbiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 ever-increasing complexity in critical spacecraft hardware and materials has led to the development of new microbial reduction procedures as well as to changes in established processes such as heat microbial reduction (HMR). In the space biology field of Planetary Protection, 500°C for 0.5 s is the current HMR recommendation to reduce microorganisms from flight hardware. However, more studies are needed to effectively determine the microbial reduction capability of high-temperature (more than 200°C), short-duration (under 30 s) heat exposures. One of the many recent microbial reduction bioengineering research avenues harnesses electromagnetic energy for microbial reduction, with previous investigations demonstrating that infrared heaters are capable of the short temperature ramp time required for rapid heating investigations above 200°C. Therefore, this study employed a 6 kW infrared heater to determine the survivability of heat resistant
