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

This study reports the potent antiviral ability of proton-type zeolites without the aid of any metal cations. Antiviral activities of zeolites with different topologies and chemical compositions are investigated using M13 phage and influenza virus. Proton-type zeolites exhibit excellent antiviral activity, equivalent to 99% inactivated. Antiviral tests using a centricon device suggest that direct contact of viruses on the external surface of zeolites is required to inactivate the viruses. This discovery is of importance in an interdisciplinary research field covering both zeolite science and virological science and shed light on the possibility of the development of low-cost and environmentally friendly antiviral zeolites.
