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

Since the emergence of the coronavirus disease, there has been a notable surge in demand for herbal remedies with minimal or no adverse effects. Notably, existing vaccines and medications employed in its treatment have exhibited significant side effects, some of which have proven fatal. Consequently, there is an increasing focus on pharmacological research aimed at identifying optimal solutions to this challenge. This shift entails exploring organic alternatives to traditional medicines, involving the extraction of superior phytochemicals from plants for enhanced biomedical applications in treating various diseases and conditions. To evaluate the qualitative phytochemicals and the quantity of these phytochemicals present in the leaf extracts of the medicinally important plant Plumeria pudica Jacq. Also, the antioxidant property estimation and the study of the antimicrobial properties of the plant have been done in this research. The qualitative phytochemical analysis was done to evaluate the presence of various phytochemicals and to quantify these phytochemicals total content estimation of them was done. Also, phytochemical analysis was further enriched by LCMS-QTOF analysis for the presence of compounds. The determination of the antioxidant potential of the leaves was done by two assays, the reducing power assay and the DPPH(2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) assay. With that the antimicrobial properties of the leaves were also put to test against four bacterial strains namely, Kocuria rhizophila, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumonia, and E. coli. The results of the phytochemical evaluation indicated that both IPA and hydroalcoholic extracts exhibited a superior phytochemical composition, emphasizing the higher extractive potential of IPA compared to the non-polar petroleum ether extract. The quantitative analysis revealed the predominance of IPA extract as the quantity of phenols (101 mg GAE/g dry-weight of plant extract), flavonoids (402.2 mg QE/g dry-weight of plant extract), carbohydrates (336 mg GLU/g dry-weight of plant extract), and proteins (164 mg BSAE/g dry-weight of plant extract) were highest in the IPA extract. LC-MS QTOF analysis demonstrated the presence of significant phytocompounds in all leaf extracts that have pharmacological applications. Moreover, in antioxidant assays, the IPA extract showed the highest DPPH scavenging activity (66.85% of inhibition), with an IC
