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
Background: Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are becoming a significant global concern. To combat the spread of resistance or reverse multidrug resistance, developing novel antimicrobials and/or resistance modulators is essential. This study aimed to evaluate the synergistic effects of the methanolic extract of Methods: Phytochemical analysis along with the determination of total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of MEPFF, was performed using standard procedure. The extract's DPPH free radical scavenging activity was assessed to evaluate its potential antioxidant activity. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC) of MEPFF against Results: The quantitative investigation found terpenoids, flavonoids, tannins, phenolics, saponins, cardiac glycosides, and alkaloids in MEPFF. The TFC, TPC, and TAC of MEPFF were found at 183 ± 9.54 mg QE, 248.33 ± 11.06 mg GAE, and 95.33 ± 8.33 mg AAE/gm extract. The extract showed significant antioxidant activity in the DPPH experiment, with an IC50 value of 12.13±0.53 µg/ml. Azithromycin and the extract together have far greater antibacterial action against all four bacterial strains. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) is 3.67 ± 1.15 to 5.83 ± 0.76 mg/mL, while the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) is 4.33 ± 1.26 to 7.33 ± 1.04 mg/mL. In silico studies revealed that pandamarilactone-1, nonpandamarilactone-B, and thiamine had the best docking energy (-9.9, -8.9, and -8.5 kcal/mol), suggesting most active compounds against MPh-II protein. Conclusion: The extract enhances antibiotic therapy and suggests that the aforesaid synergistic drug-herb combinations may treat MDR bacterial infections.
