Effects of caffeic acid phenethyl ester against multi-species cariogenic biofilms.
Article in Folia microbiologica, 2023. 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
Dental caries is a biofilm-related disease, widely perceived to be caused by oral ecological imbalance when cariogenic/aciduric bacteria obtain an ecological advantage. Compared with planktonic bacteria, dental plaques are difficult to remove under extracellular polymeric substance protection. In this study, the effect of caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) on a preformed cariogenic multi-species biofilm was evaluated, which was comprised of cariogenic bacteria (Streptococcus mutans), commensal bacteria (Streptococcus gordonii), and a pioneer colonizer (Actinomyces naeslundii). Our result revealed that treatment with 0.08 mg/mL CAPE reduced live S. mutans in the preformed multi-species biofilm while not significantly changing the quantification of live S. gordonii. CAPE significantly reduced the production of lactic acid, extracellular polysaccharide, and extracellular DNA and made the biofilm looser. Moreover, CAPE could promote the H
