Influence of Hyptis suaveolens growth stage on essential oil composition, antimicrobial and antioxidant activities.
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 3 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
This study highlights the significant enhancement of biological activity in Hyptis suaveolens essential oils (EOs) through growth stage variations, demonstrating optimized antimicrobial and antioxidant potential at specific phases. EOs were obtained via hydro-distillation from the vegetative, reproductive, and post-reproductive stages, with yields of 0.25%, 0.65%, and 0.42%, respectively. GC-MS analyses identified sabinene as the major compound in the vegetative (43.16%) and reproductive (23.46%) stages, while eucalyptol (23.54%) dominated the post-reproductive phase. The vegetative stage EO exhibited the most potent antibacterial and antifungal activity, effectively inhibiting Staphylococcus aureus and the post-harvest fungal pathogen Botrytis californica. Antioxidant assays (DPPH, ABTS, and β-carotene bleaching) revealed the highest antioxidant activity in the post-reproductive stage. These findings demonstrate the significant impact of growth stage variations on the bioactivity of H. suaveolens EOs, highlighting their potential for pharmaceutical and food preservative applications.
