Chiliadenus iphionoides: From chemical profiling to anticancer, antioxidant, α-amylase, and α-glycosidase activities.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Recently, essential oils (EOs) have garnered attention for their biological properties as a source of natural compounds with anticancer, antibacterial, and antioxidant effects. Chiliadenus iphionoides (Boiss.& Blanche) Brullo is a fragrant aromatic species indigenous to Palestine and the neighboring countries. It is utilized by the Bedouins for the treatment of many ailments. This study aimed to analyze the chemical composition of essential oil extracted from the desiccated leaves of Chiliadenus iphionoides (Boiss.& Blanche) Brullo and to assess its in vitro antioxidant, anticancer, and α-amylase and lipase inhibitory activities. The EO obtained during hydrodistillation was analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry to ascertain their chemical composition. GC-MS analysis of the EO from dried Chiliadenus iphionoides (Boiss.& Blanche) Brullo leaves identified 47 compounds, comprising 98.81% of the total oil. The predominant constituents included cresol methyl ether (52.93%), ethyl 2-octynoate (14.36%), epi-α-cadinol (6.56%), 1,8-cineole (4.25%), and 7-epi-α-eudesmol (3.66%). The EO exhibited significant antioxidant activity against 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) with an IC50 value of 19.83 ± 0.99 μg/mL. Nevertheless, it exhibited limited lipase activity and subpar α-amylase activity. Chiliadenus iphionoides (Boiss.& Blanche) Brullo EO exhibited significant cytotoxicity against B16F10 and MCF-7 cancer cell lines, with IC50 values of 8.74 ± 0.11 and 13.68 ± 0.17 μg/mL, respectively. The combination of the anticancer medication Taxol (10 ng) with Chiliadenus iphionoides (Boiss.& Blanche) Brullo EO at concentrations of 25 μg/mL and 50 μg/mL significantly enhanced the inhibitory efficacy of Taxol against MCF-7 and B16F10 cells.
