Problems with Citrus aurantium information in "A review on botanical species and chemical compounds with appetite suppressing properties for body weight control".
Article in Plant foods for human nutrition (Dordrecht, Netherlands), 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Various botanical extracts are used as adjuncts in treating obesity. A recent review concerning botanical products used to suppress appetite has included a discussion of Citrus aurantium and p-synephrine. The authors have incorrectly equated the actions of C. aurantium with ephedra in terms of adrenergic receptor binding, pharmacological effects and safety. Current research literature is reviewed which clarifies these issues.
