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

Essential oils and their by-products extracted using distillation methods are a rich and diverse source of natural products with various therapeutic applications. Hymenocrater calycinus (Boiss.) Benth. is used in traditional Iranian medicine as an analgesic, antiallergic, and a remedy for treating cutaneous burns. The present study was conducted for the first time to compare the antimicrobial activity and cytotoxicity of the essential oil and the residual water extract after distillation of H. calycinus from the habitats of Kashan, Iran. The essential oil of this plant was extracted by hydro-distillation using a Clevenger apparatus, and the residual water extract in the Clevenger apparatus flask after separation from the plant waste was concentrated and converted into a dry extract. Chemical profiling of the essential oil was performed using GC-MS. Total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), and antioxidant capacity were quantified using the Folin-Ciocalteu, quercetin equivalence, and DPPH assays, respectively. The antimicrobial activity of the essential oil and extract was determined by the agar diffusion method, and the lowest inhibitory and bactericidal concentrations were determined against eleven microorganisms (three Gram-positive bacteria, six Gram-negative bacteria, and one yeast strain). The MTT method was used to evaluate the cytotoxicity of the essential oil and extract on Human Dermal Fibroblast (HDF) cell lines. The results showed that the yield of H. calycinus essential oil was about 0.68% w/w, and heptacosane (48.06%), citronellol oleate (7.81%), and caryophyllene oxide (5.67%) were the dominant components of this essential oil.
