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

Essential oils (EO) from Piper marginatum Jacq. exhibit biological activities dependent on chemical compositions, which vary mainly due to environmental factors. This study investigated the seasonal and regional variation in the chemical composition and antimicrobial activity of EO from P. marginatum leaves collected in three Brazilian regions across four seasons. Sixty compounds were identified, primarily terpenoids and phenylpropanoids. Multivariate analyses revealed seasonal variations and distinguished the Northeast region EO, which contained the isomers pipermargine (3.38%-14.56%) and 1,3,5-trimethoxy-2-[(Z)-prop-1-enyl]benzene (13.47%-14.87%)-reported for the first time in EO. The Central-West winter EO exhibited the broadest antimicrobial spectrum, with strong activity against Candida albicans (MIC 0.5 mg mL
