Controlling Fusarium acuminatum Rot on Saladette Tomato Fruit Through Hybrid Films Containing Cymbopogon citratus Essential Oil.

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
Herein, we report on Fusarium acuminatum as a potential postharvest phytopathogen of saladette tomato fruit (Solanum lycopersicum) and its ex situ control through hybrid films made of chitosan and Cymbopogon citratus essential oil. GC-MS analysis revealed that C. citratus essential oil contained geranial (38.7%), neral (36.9%), and beta-myrcene (11.3%) as major compounds with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 2.1 mg/mL against F. acuminatum. According to scanning electron microscopy and FT-IR tests, hybrid films made of chitosan and 1%-1.5% C. citratus essential oil exhibited a homogeneous surface and internal composition while also conserving bioactive functional groups from monoterpenes linked to antifungal activity. These composites also had moderate opacity (OD
