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 investigated the phytochemical profile and biological activities of the essential oil (EO) distilled from Angelica archangelica L. seeds grown on trace element (TE)-polluted soil, within a phytomanagement context. The effects of soil pollution and mycorrhizal inoculation on EO composition and its antifungal, herbicidal, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties were assessed. The chemical composition of the EO, predominantly β-phellandrene, α-pinene, α-phellandrene, and β-myrcene, remained stable regardless of mycorrhizal inoculation. While antioxidant activity was moderate, the EO exhibited promising anti-inflammatory potential compared to other EO, suggesting its application in health-related products. Furthermore, the EO demonstrated antifungal activity, notably against Zymoseptoria tritici (IC50: 21 mg.L⁻¹), a major wheat pathogen, and inhibited Fusarium culmorum, Fusarium graminearum and the oomycete Phytophthora infestans growth. It also reduced wheat infection by Blumeria graminis (responsible for powdery mildew) by 40%. Additionally, the EO showed herbicidal effects on ryegrass (IC50: 144 mg.L⁻¹), indicating its potential as a natural pesticide alternative. Overall, A. archangelica EO produced on TE-polluted soils retains desirable chemical and biological activities, supporting its potential for various non-food applications.
