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
Aim: This study aims to evaluate the effect of applied voltage and treatment duration of cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) against Methods: We evaluated the effects of CAP input voltage and treatment duration on inhibition zones, biofilm viability and metabolism, cell membrane integrity, biofilm oxidative stress, biomass composition, and hyphal structure. Results: Higher applied voltages and longer treatment duration significantly reduced biofilm viability, with complete eradication was achieved after 3 min at 16 and 20 V, while longer exposure (5 min) was required at lower voltages (8 and 12 V). The results show a clear response relationship between CAP treatment parameters and biofilm eradication. The assessment of cell membrane integrity supports the results, as membrane damage increases with increasing treatment parameters. Biofilm oxidative stress increased with treatment duration and morphological examination shows contraction and compression of the hyphal structure. Molecular changes in biofilm biomass show significant changes in lipids, proteins and carbohydrates depending on CAP settings. Conclusion: This study emphasizes the potential of optimal CAP treatment parameters as a promising approach to control
