Antimicrobial activity, ergosterol content and phytochemical screening of Rorippa Islandica (Oeder ex Murr.) and Carrichtera annua (L.).

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
The purpose of this study was to identify non-polluting medicinal plant alternatives. Two medicinal plants, Rorippa islandica and Carrichtera annua (family Brassicaceae), collected from the NorthWestern Coastal region (Marsa Matrouh, Egypt), were investigated to determine their bioactive constituents in ethanol crude extracts using GC-MS and HPLC techniques, and to evaluate their in vitro antifungal activity against five pathogenic fungi. GC-MS analysis revealed the presence of 50 and 54 compounds in R. islandica and C. annua, respectively. The primary compound in R. islandica was 13-Docosenamide (20.54%), while in C. annua it was 2-Hydroxy-1-(hydroxymethyl) ethyl stearate (9.74%). HPLC identified 19 and 18 phenolic compounds in R. islandica and C. annua, respectively, with gallic acid as the predominant compound in both plants (3417.72 µg/g and 3733.98 µg/g, respectively). Both plant extracts exhibited promising antifungal activity. For R. islandica, the most potent effect at 10 mg/ml was observed with the 70% ethanol successive extract against Colletotrichum gloeosporioides (inhibition zone 29 ± 0.3 mm; MIC 7.8 µg/ml; MFC 15.62 µg/ml). For C. annua, the most potent effect at 10 mg/ml was from the total extract against Curvularia lunata (inhibition zone 35 ± 0.1 mm; MIC 1.97 µg/ml; MFC 3.9 µg/ml). A significant reduction in ergosterol content was observed in the total and successive ethanol (96% and 70%) fractions of both plants, with the highest reduction in C. lunata and C. gloeosporioides treated with C. annua extract (49.93% and 47.7%, respectively), and in P. glabrum and C. gloeosporioides treated with R. islandica extract (47.2% and 42.58%, respectively). Morphological changes induced by the total and ethanol (96% and 70%) extracts of both plants were examined using AFM.
