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

The growth rate of many microorganisms decreases when exposed to blue light (BL) at around 450 nm. This growth retardation is likely caused by the photosensitivity of endogenous photosensitizers, flavins, which absorb BL and generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) that cause inactivation and mutations of microorganisms. In this study, the effect of weak (0-0.12 mW/cm
