Synergistic effects of bioactive plant extract mixtures on methane reduction and rumen fermentation of eragrostis curvula hay in vitro.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Building on prior research indicating the methane-mitigating potential of specific medicinal plants for ruminant animals. This study aimed to investigate the associative effects of combining six medicinal plant extracts known for their methane-reducing properties: Aloe vera (AV), Carica papaya (CP), Azadirachta indica (AZ), Tithonia diversifolia (TD), Jatropha curcas (JA), and Moringa oleifera (MO). Methanolic extracts of the plants were combined in equal proportions into two-way mixtures and applied at a concentration of 50 mg/L to 400 mg Eragrostis curvula hay, followed by a 48-hour in vitro incubation. Phytochemical profiling of individual plant extracts was performed using LC-MS and HPLC methods. Evaluated parameters included methane (CH
