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

This study evaluated the antioxidant and antibacterial properties of zinc oxide nanoparticles containing Bunium persicum (Boiss.) B. Fedtsch. essential oil synthesized using a green method. The analyses were conducted with three replications using a completely randomized methodology. The means were compared using Duncan's multiple range test at a significance level of 5% using SPSS version 22 statistical software. In the microbial test, the antimicrobial property of zinc oxide nanoparticles with cumin essential oil was significantly higher than that of B. persicum (Boiss.) B. Fedtsch. essential oil in both disc diffusion and microbroth dilution methods (p < 0.05). In addition, zinc oxide nanoparticles with B. persicum (Boiss.) B. Fedtsch. essential oil had the most significant effect on Candida Albicans yeast, then on the gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus bacteria, and finally on the gram-negative Escherichia coli bacteria. Zinc oxide nanoparticles combined with B. persicum (Boiss.) B. Fedtsch. essential oil showed a better result than B. persicum (Boiss.) B. Fedtsch. essential oil in measuring the amount of total phenolic compounds (p < 0.05). In the test of particle size and dispersion index, there was a significant difference in the samples (p < 0.05). The lowest particle size and particle size dispersion index were related to the sample of zinc oxide nanoparticles with B. persicum (Boiss.) B. Fedtsch. essential oil.
