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
The escalation of the COVID-19 outbreak has significantly increased research into the transmission of airborne infectious diseases in indoor settings, underscoring the urgent necessity for affordable and efficient methods of air disinfection. The aim of the present work is the development of a complete framework based on designed experiments for exploring and optimizing the bioaerosol removal and inactivation efficiency of a novel air disinfection device. This device combines the aerodynamic effect of a three-dimensional vortex structure with UV-C radiation provided by commercially available UV-C light-emitting diodes (UV-C LEDs). The system was designed and tested to locally maintain a high radiation intensity that is suitable for bioaerosol disinfection. A controlled experimental laboratory model of bioaerosol aerosolization was set up by using an impinger medical vibrating nebulizer, a cylindrical chamber for bioaerosol travel, and an SKC BioSampler for collecting microorganisms capable of replicating.
