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

In this study, bergamot essential oil (BEO) was encapsulated within β-cyclodextrin/gum Arabic (BEO-βCD/GA) to enhance its physicochemical properties and its toxicity against Tribolium castaneum, a major stored-product pest. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry detected D-limonene (59.38%) as the predominant component of BEO. The optimized BEO-βCD/GA exhibited a particle size of 194.26 ± 2.45 nm, a low polydispersity index (0.04 ± 0.003), zeta potential of - 31.23 mV, and a high encapsulation efficiency of 88.12%, indicating a homogeneous system. BEO-βCD/GA showed greater toxicity than BEO, producing lower LC values and higher T. castaneum mortality across concentrations and exposure periods. The carrier substances showed no toxicity to T. castaneum, confirming that the observed effects were due to BEO or BEO-βCD/GA. The LC
