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

Caseous lymphadenitis is a chronic infectious disease caused by Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis that affects small ruminants, resulting in significant economic losses. In response, essential oils (EO) have emerged as promising natural alternatives for disease control. The present study evaluated the chemical composition, antioxidant capacity, and antibacterial activity of EO from Origanum vulgare (OVEO) and Eucalyptus staigeriana (ESEO) against C. pseudotuberculosis isolated from Northeastern Brazil. The antibacterial effect was assessed by disk diffusion, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), Minimum Bactericidal Concentration, time-kill assays, and combination tests with cloxacillin. Gas chromatography analysis identified carvacrol as the major compound in OVEO, and D-limonene in ESEO. OVEO demonstrated strong antibacterial efficacy, exhibiting inhibition zones of up to 74 mm and MICs ranging from 31.2 to 250 µg/mL. Both EOs demonstrated bactericidal properties and exhibited additive interactions with cloxacillin (FICi 0.56-1.03). Furthermore, OVEO exhibited strong antioxidant activity (IC
