Airborne Halophilic and Non-Halophilic Microbial Communities in an Underground Salt Mine Affected by Seasonal Environmental Fluctuations.
Article in Environmental microbiology reports, 2026. 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
The UNESCO-listed Bochnia Salt Mine in Poland is a heritage site whose galleries remain coupled to surface air, generating warm, humid, salt-laden summers and cool, dry, ion-poor winters. Airborne halophilic archaea were recently reported here but their seasonal behaviour remained unknown. We quantified physicochemical parameters and airborne microbes at three underground stations and an outdoor control site. Winter measurements of air samples were compared with previously published summer data from the same transect. Winter relative humidity (~42%-63%) was lower than summer values (~65%-77%). Furthest from the intake shaft, the combined Na
