Effects of non-thermal plasma on disinfection of indoor air and reduction of particulate matter.
Article in Scientific reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Indoor airborne microorganisms and particulate matter (PM) are associated with respiratory infections and non-communicable diseases, posing a significant public health concern. This study evaluated the effectiveness of non-thermal plasma (NTP) for air disinfection and PM removal under real-world conditions. Chamber experiments were conducted using air artificially contaminated with PM, and reduction rates were compared between NTP and control groups. Field investigations were performed in an unoccupied classroom and a clinic during normal operation, and airborne bacterial concentrations, PM levels, and influence of human activities and environmental factors were evaluated. The results showed that a 30-min NTP treatment reduced approximately 90% of PM
