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

MAIN

conclusionThis review highlights the health benefits and environmental potential of Portulaca species, particularly Portulaca oleracea L., and emphasizes addressing challenges in bioactive compound yields and scalability for broader applications. Portulaca species (Portulaca spp.) are globally distributed and rich in bioactive compounds, including alkaloids, flavonoids, betalains, and fatty acids. These compounds exhibit antioxidant, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer activities. Among these species, Portulaca oleracea L. or purslane is notable for its long history in the traditional medicine. Its aqueous extracts have demonstrated anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, and antioxidant properties, particularly in mitigating oxidative stress and gastrointestinal disorders. In addition, its nutritional profile, rich in omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals, is higher than many leafy vegetables. As a genus of succulents, Portulaca is highly adaptable to abiotic stresses like drought, heat, and salinity due to unique physiological mechanisms, such as C
