Novel bandpass filter for far UV-C emitting radiation sources.
Article in Optical Materials, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Disinfection with far UV-C radiation (<230 nm) is an effective method to inactivate harmful microorganisms like the SARS-CoV2 virus. Due to the stronger absorption than regular UV-C radiation (254 nm) and hence limited penetration into human tissues, it has the promise of enabling disinfection in occupied spaces. The best far-UV sources so far are discharge lamps based on the KrCl* excimer discharge peaking at 222 nm, however they produce longer wavelength radiation as a by-product. In current KrCl* excimer lamps usually a dichroic filter is used to suppress these undesired longer wavelengths. A phosphor-based filter is an alternative which is cheaper and easier to apply. This paper describes the results of our exploration of this opportunity. Various compounds were synthesized and characterized to find a replacement for the dichroic filter. It was found that Bi
