Comparative Evaluation of the Inhibitory Effect of Lactobacillus rhamnosus on Halitosis-Causing Bacteria: An Invitro Microbiological Study.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
aimTo determine the effectiveness of MATERIALS AND
methodsThis in vitro study was done using a diffusion test with three groups with 11 samples in each group: group A,
resultsA statistically significant difference was seen for halo formation in group A, where all 11 samples showed an inhibitory effect after 72 hours. After 48 hours, seven of the 11 samples in group B and nine of the 11 samples in group C showed inhibitory effects.
