Inactivation of Hepatitis A Virus and Feline Calicivirus on Model Food Contact Surfaces by Ultraviolet Light (UV-C) Systems.
Article in Foods (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Food contact surfaces can harbor and transmit pathogens leading to outbreaks. Decontamination strategies that are user- and environmentally-friendly without toxic by-product formation are needed. Novel UV-C light-emitting diode (LED) technologies are being explored to deliver the required dose to inactivate viruses in food-processing environments. The objective of this study was to compare the effects of 279 nm UV-C LED to 254 nm UV-C against hepatitis A virus (HAV) and feline calicivirus (FCV, a cultivable human norovirus surrogate) on stainless-steel, ceramic, and glass surfaces. Viruses were surface spread on sterile stainless-steel or ceramic coupons (100 μL on 2 × 2 cm
