Comparative Evaluation of Antimicrobial Activity of Licorice, Green Tea, Their Combined Extracts, and Sodium Fluoride Mouthwashes against
Article in International journal of clinical pediatric dentistry, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Background: The current lifestyle has made children more susceptible to carious lesions all around the world. One of the major contributing microorganisms is Materials and methods: In the first part of the study, various concentrations of ethanolic licorice and green tea extract were prepared in the laboratory of Pharmacy College. Further, mouthwash formulations were done using the same extracts. A combination of green tea and licorice mouthwash was made too. It was then subjected to microbiological assay to determine its zone of inhibition using agar disk diffusion test and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was measured against Results: Significant difference was seen with the following groups: Kidodent and green tea, Kidodent and licorice; green tea and green tea + licorice, and licorice and green tea + licorice. No significant difference was seen for the following group comparison: Kidodent and green tea + licorice, and green tea and licorice. Also, out of all the mouthwashes, the maximum zone of inhibition in millimeters was seen for 30.75 ± 1.16 mm for green tea mouthwash, 29.75 ± 1.03 mm for licorice mouthwash, and 27.875 ± 1.12 mm for the combination. Conclusion: Early establishment of cariogenic microbes such as How to cite this article: Saxena S, Sogi S, Saini A,
