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

The study report the antifungal effectiveness of Melaleuca alternifolia essential oil (MAEO) and its nanoencapsulated form (Ne-MAEO) against the selected fungal species Aspergillus flavus, A. niger, Fusarium oxysporium, and Penicillium glaucum and explored its mode of action. The chemical components of MAEO (γ-terpinene (13.69%), and terpinen-4-ol (33.94%) were explored by Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The Ne-MAEO was fabricated using chitosan-cinnamic acid gel and characterisation was done for size and functional group interaction and crystallinity by FTIR, DLS and XRD. The minimum inhibitory concentration was ranged between (2.0 to 4.0 µl/ml) against the growth test fungal species, while the aflatoxin B
