Efficacy of microbicidal actives and formulations for inactivation of Lassa virus in suspension.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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's R&D Blueprint list of priority diseases for 2022 includes Lassa fever, signifying the need for research and development in emergency contexts. This disease is caused by the arenavirus Lassa virus (LASV). Being an enveloped virus, LASV should be susceptible to a variety of microbicidal actives, although empirical data to support this expectation are needed. We evaluated the virucidal efficacy of sodium hypochlorite, ethanol, a formulated dual quaternary ammonium compound, an accelerated hydrogen peroxide formulation, and a p-chloro-m-xylenol formulation, per ASTM E1052-20, against LASV engineered to express green fluorescent protein (GFP). A 10-μL volume of virus in tripartite soil (bovine serum albumin, tryptone, and mucin) was combined with 50 μL of disinfectant in suspension for 0.5, 1, 5, or 10 min at 20-25 °C. Neutralized test mixtures were quantified by GFP expression to determine log
