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

We report the development of a large area cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) array. The device consists of a parallel stack of 43 linear-discharge plasma elements that create a 10 cm × 10 cm treatment area. The CAP device is fabricated using low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) layers to create 10 cm long linear discharge channels (1.1 mm discharge gap) with embedded opposing silver metal electrodes. A 21 kHz AC voltage of 1.55 kVrms applied to the electrodes generates an Ar plasma between the plates, with the gas flow directing the reactive species toward the intended biological sample (bacteria biofilms, etc.) to affect the antimicrobial treatment. Internal ballast resistors (20 kΩ) were used on each side of the two electrode elements to improve discharge uniformity and to prevent large filamentary discharges. Typical element discharge currents were 3.5-4 mA with the total array current tested at 178 mA (rms) to provide optimal device uniformity at a 1.55 kV (rms), and an argon flow rate of 130 lpm. Further, the gas flow system was optimized to obtain a uniform plasma. Treatment of
