Article in International journal of clinical pediatric dentistry, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Caries is a dental disease caused by pathogenic bacteria, such as Aim: In this investigation, the aim is to assess the comparative antimicrobial potency of Materials and methods: Aqueous extracts of chia seeds and fennel seeds were prepared through cold maceration, and the resulting crude residue was collected. A 0.2% chlorhexidine solution was used as the negative control. Results: Chia seed and fennel seed extracts both exhibited antimicrobial properties; however, fennel seed extract showed significantly higher activity against Conclusion: This study's observations point to the viability of herbal extracts as a practical alternative to conventional antimicrobial products. Clinical significance: The use of synthetic antimicrobial agents has led to side effects and the development of antimicrobial resistance due to improper usage. In contrast, herbal extracts may offer safer and more effective alternatives, provided they are backed by scientifically validated evidence.
