The in vitro potential of non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma against Nosema ceranae infection in honeybees (Apis mellifera).
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 2 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
Nosema ceranae is a widespread microsporidian parasite that primarily affects adult honeybees (Apis mellifera) but has also been reported to infect honeybee larvae. It has been considered as a main cause of colony losses. This study evaluated the anti-microsporidian activity of atmospheric non-thermal plasma against N. ceranae, which could provide a new technology for controlling Nosema disease. Argon and helium plasma substantially decreased N. ceranae spores, with the maximal reductions of 96.55% and 96.05%, respectively. Also, plasma activated water (PAW) generated by argon gas affected spores by a 50.51-77.14% of reduction, with H
