Evaluation of the Antimicrobial Activity of 20 Essential Oils and Their Combinations on Bacterial and Fungal Strains.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
introductionGrowing antibiotic resistance is driving the search for natural alternatives, such as essential oils (EOs), which are known for their antimicrobial properties. This study evaluated the antimicrobial efficacy of 20 EOs on bacterial and fungal strains and the impact of their combinations. MATERIALS AND
methodsTwenty EOs were selected to evaluate their antimicrobial potential in vitro. Stock solutions were prepared and tested on three bacterial strains (
