Physicochemical properties of plasma-activated water and associated antimicrobial activity against fungi and bacteria.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Plasma-activated water (PAW), generated through Surface Dielectric Barrier Discharge, was tested against microbial contaminants. We assessed how the time of exposure to plasma treatment and the gas flow rate impact the chemical composition of PAW, and, in turn, how it influences these factors influence its efficacy against microorganisms. The effectiveness of PAW treatments was evaluated against the fungal phytopathogen Botrytis cinerea and both pathogenic (Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria) and beneficial (Bacillus amyloliquefaciens) bacteria. The physicochemical properties of PAW were assessed as the concentration of reactive species, namely, NO
