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

Cordia africana is one of the traditional medicinal plants that is used for the treatment of malaria, liver diseases, stomachaches, and diarrhea. Despite its ethnomedicinal application, the phytochemical composition of its root and its antibacterial activities have not been reported. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the phytochemicals of C. africana root and evaluate its antibacterial activity. The air-dried root of C .africana was sequentially extracted by dichloromethane and methanol (1:1 v/v), and methanol. Phytochemical screening of crude extracts showed the presence of flavonoids, steroids, triterpenoids, phenols, and tannins, while alkaloids were absent. The column chromatographic isolation of the dichloromethane: methanol (1:1 v/v) crude extracts yielded two compounds, compound-GT1 (trilinolein) and compound-GT2 (β-sitosterol). The structure elucidation of the isolated compounds was performed based on data from
