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.

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.

To address this, the study aimed at the formulation of mouthrinses using herbal extracts of Methodology: The study was registered at CTRI (CTRI/2024/06/068874), which involved formulation of mouthrinses using the extracts, followed by a double-blinded clinical trial with 60 children aged 9-12 years, randomly assigned to three groups: Results: The intragroup comparison showed a statistically significant reduction in mean plaque scores across all three groups over 14 days. Additionally, the Conclusion: The two herbal extracts were as effective as CHX in maintaining the oral health of children, with better taste acceptance, and can be considered as an alternative to CHX.
