Evaluation of the Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Activity of Natural Deep Eutectic Solvents (NADESs) Based on Primary and Specialized Plant Metabolites.

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
NADESs represent a modern class of extraction media that align with the principles of green chemistry. They are considered non-toxic and biodegradable, but relatively little is known about their biological activity. This study investigated the antioxidant, antibacterial, and antifungal properties of 40 NADESs. The systems were developed from primary (PRIM) based on choline chloride (ChCl), and specialized (HEVO) plant-derived metabolites, particularly based on thymol and menthol. Their antioxidant activity was evaluated using spectrophotometric tests. The antimicrobial activity was evaluated by the disk diffusion method. The data obtained were analyzed using principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA). NADESs based on PRIM exhibited negligible antioxidant activity and relatively low antimicrobial activity. By contrast, NADESs containing HEVO, particularly thymol-based systems, indicated significant antioxidant activity, with stronger activity observed at higher molar proportions of thymol. In the 1,8-cineole:thymol system, ABTS activity ranged from 167.37 ± 24.17 to 861.25 ± 33.03 mg Trolox equivalents/mL NADES (molar ratios 9:1 and 1:9, respectively). The 1,8-cineole:thymol system (1:9) also showed strong antimicrobial activity, with a maximum inhibition zone of 39.33 ± 2.52 mm against
