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

This study revealed the characteristics of the ethanol extract of Origanum vulgare L. subsp. vulgare, copper, iron, and silver nanoparticles (CuNPs, FeNPs, AgNPs) were synthesized with the extracts for the first time. The NPs were characterized using field emission scanning electron microscopes (FE-SEM), field emission scanning electron microscope-energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (FESEM-EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). UV-Vis spectrophotometry is used for the confirmation of NPs. The extract had bioactive components, including thymol (35.99%) and naringenin (41.02 µg/g). Molecular docking of thymol/naringenin-AgNPs complexes with the PapR7 C-terminus produced MolDock scores of - 122.545 and - 94.929 for naringenin-AgNPs and thymol-AgNPs. AgNPs and CuNPs exhibited potent antibacterial activity against Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. AgNPs exhibited protease activity (5 mg/mL), and CuNPs exhibited lipase activity (5 and 10 mg/mL). FeNPs exhibited weak inhibitory properties (IC
