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

Bidens aurea is a flowering plant known for its yellow or white flowers rich with various bioactive chemical compounds that possess or have proven high medicinal values, This research aimed to investigate the in vitro antioxidant and antimicrobial abilities of individual polar extracts and semi-purified fractions of Bidens aurea. In this study, three different extracts (cold water, hot water, and ethanol) and 6 isolated fractions of ethanolic extract (as the most potent sample) were assessed for their antiradical and antioxidant properties in comparison with ascorbic acid a natural standard with 2,2-diphenyl- 1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH
