Taxonomic authentication and phytochemical characterization of an endangered medicinal species,
Article in Frontiers in plant science, 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
Introduction: Methods: Field surveys were conducted between 2021 and 2024 across 24 forest divisions in Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, and Maharashtra, resulting in the identification and documentation of 262 individuals. Morphological characters were examined and compared with herbarium specimens to establish diagnostic traits. Leaf and bark samples were extracted using 70% ethanol, 70% methanol, and distilled water. Qualitative screening was performed for major phytochemical groups, while total phenolic content (TPC) and total flavonoid content (TFC) were quantified using catechol and quercetin as standards, respectively. Results: Morphological examination confirmed distinctive diagnostic characteristics, including light brown papery bark, cordate-based ovate leaves with a densely tomentose abaxial surface, pentamerous or hexamerous flowers, drupaceous fruits with a single exalbuminous seed, and dioecious floral structures. Flowering commenced in the first week of March, with anthesis observed between 07:30 and 10:30 and butterfly-mediated pollination. Phytochemical screening revealed alkaloids, tannins, coumarins, phenols, flavonoids, saponins, phlobatannins, glycosides, sterols, terpenoids, quinones, and oxalates, with substantial variation according to plant tissue and extraction solvent. The highest TPC was recorded in the ethanolic bark extract (11.72 mg CE/g), whereas the highest TFC was detected in the methanolic bark extract (12.19 mg QE/g) . Discussion: The integrated taxonomic and phytochemical assessment provides reliable morphological markers for field identification and demonstrates substantial variation in the secondary metabolite profile of
