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

Ultraviolet (UV) light is an effective disinfection method. In particular, UV light-emitting diodes (UV-LEDs) are expected to have many applications as light sources owing to their compact form factor and wide range of choices of wavelengths. However, the UV sensitivity of microorganisms for each UV wavelength has not been evaluated comprehensively because standard experimental conditions based on LED characteristics have not been established. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a standard evaluation method based on LED characteristics. Here, we developed a new UV-LED device based on strictly controlled irradiation conditions using LEDs for each wavelength (250-365 nm), checked the validity of the device characteristics and evaluated the UV sensitivity of
