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
Garlic is one of the most popular natural home remedies for a variety of illnesses. Many different cultures have recognised its beneficial properties as a herbal remedy since ancient times. Nevertheless, inappropriate usage of garlic can cause unwanted side effects despite its numerous positive qualities. Although they may appear to be the least dangerous, natural remedies like garlic can also cause burn themselves. Garlic typically resulted in second-degree burns, but in some cases, necrotic tissue could also develop. This case report described burn injuries caused by the application of raw garlic. We aimed to demonstrate the possible adverse effects of using garlic as a natural home remedy as well as to educate the public and healthcare providers about inappropriate usage of natural home remedy for self-treatment.
