Eugenol-Based Polymeric Materials-Antibacterial Activity and Applications.
Review in Antibiotics (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 21 papers.
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
Eugenol (4-Allyl-2-methoxy phenol) (EUG) is a plant-derived allyl chain-substituted guaiacol, widely known for its antimicrobial and anesthetic properties, as well as the ability to scavenge reactive oxygen species. It is typically used as a mixture with zinc oxide (ZOE) for the preparation of restorative tooth fillings and treatment of root canal infections. However, the high volatility of this insoluble-in-water component of natural essential oils can be an obstacle to its wider application. Moreover, molecular eugenol can be allergenic and even toxic if taken orally in high doses for long periods of time. Therefore, a growing interest in eugenol loading in polymeric materials (including the encapsulation of molecular eugenol and polymerization of EUG-derived monomers) has been noted recently. Such active macromolecular systems enhance the stability of eugenol action and potentially provide prolonged contact with pathogens without the undesired side effects of free EUG. In this review, we present an overview of methods leading to the formation of macromolecular derivatives of eugenol as well as the latest developments and further perspectives in their pharmacological and antimicrobial applications.
