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

The increasing prevalence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacteria has stimulated the search for plant-derived antimicrobials with alternative modes of action. This study investigated whether chemically distinct essential oils (EOs) differ in their antibacterial effects and their ability to modulate bacterial efflux-associated processes in clinically relevant MDR pathogens. The chemical compositions of tea tree (
