Continuous and Pulsed Ultraviolet-C LED on Germicidal Effect and Energy Consumption in Fresh Products: Applications in Tomatoes as a Model.
Article in Foods (Basel, Switzerland), 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
Nowadays, lifestyle change is one of the problems of the new world economic order, and the procedures of feeding, purchasing, preparation, and the storage of food products, are forcing authorities to establish more rigorous methods concerning the control of food quality and safety. Owing quality in the agro-food sector is a complex and global issue, due to the distance between production and final consumption, as well as the new demands of society on food. Contributing to the bacteria minimization during their path in the supply chain, the objective of this research is the use of an UV-C LED artificial lighting system with emission in continuous light (CL) and two of pulsed light (Mode 1 and Mode 2) for fresh products' disinfection. A mathematical model is introduced as a reference to establish the equivalence dose of continuous and pulsed UV-C LED irradiation. The doses applied were 5, 15, and 25 mJ cm
