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

Salvia rosmarinus Spenn. 'Eretto Liguria' is a regional rosemary ecotype from northwestern Italy with potential for sustainable pest control. This study aimed to characterize the essential oil (EO) and evaluate its bioinsecticidal activity against the tomato leaf miner (Tuta absoluta Meyrick), a major pest responsible for the destruction of tomato crops. The EO obtained from the fresh aerial parts was analyzed by GC-MS, and laboratory bioassays were conducted to measure larvicidal, antifeedant, and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activities at concentrations ranging from 0.05% to 5.0% (v/v). 29 constituents were identified, with α-pinene (29.40%), camphene (8.47%), β-myrcene (7.45%), and 1,8-cineole (6.19%) as the main volatile molecules of S. rosmarinus EO. Biological assays showed strong dose and time-dependent toxicity, resulting in 100% larval mortality at 2.5-5.0% within 72 h. The LC
