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

As the risk of antibiotic-resistant bacteria increases, interest in non-antibiotic treatment is also increasing. Among the methods used in non-antibiotic therapy, natural antibiotics such as essential oils have disadvantages such as low efficiency. In the case of phototherapy, the light used for antibacterial activities has low penetration into the human body because of its short wavelength, making it of low medical utility. To solve this problem, this study aimed to determine conditions for enhancing the antibacterial activity of natural phytochemicals and visible light. Four natural phytochemical extracts that showed high antibacterial properties in previous studies were analyzed. Synergistic effects on antibacterial activity and cytotoxicity were determined when natural phytochemical extracts and visible light were simultaneously used. As a result, it was confirmed that the antibacterial activity increased by four times when
