Antibacterial oral sprays from kaffir lime (
Article in Journal of traditional and complementary medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
BACKGROUND AND
aimKaffir lime fruit peel oil and Kaffir lime leaf oil have been reported for their activities against respiratory tract pathogens. The purpose of the study was to develop clear oral sprays to be used as a first-defense oral spray. EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE: Clear antibacterial oral sprays were prepared and analyzed for their respective active major compounds, using GC-MS. The sprays were tested against a Gr. A streptococcal clinical isolate and 3 standard respiratory tract pathogens, using Broth microdilution method. A 4-month stability test was carried out as well. RESULTS AND
conclusionSix clear oral sprays, three formulae composed of Kaffir lime fruit peel oil (6, 10, 13%v/v KLO) and the other three formulae containing Kaffir lime leaf oil (4, 8, 12%v/v KLLO), were developed. The active compounds in KLO were α-terpineol and terpinene-4-ol whereas that in KLLO was citronellal. All oral sprays exhibited antibacterial activity against one Group A streptococcal clinical isolate and three respiratory pathogenic pathogens,
