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
backgroundThe growing demand on natural ingredients in cosmetics has immensely contributed to a renewed interest in cosmetic industry in plant derivatives, especially essential oils. The aim of this study is to examine the dermatoprotective and antifungal properties of Clinopodium nepeta (CNEO) and Thymus vulgaris (TVEO) essential oils. MATERIALS AND
methodsGas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis was performed to identify the chemical composition of the essential oils. Anti-elastase and anti-tyrosinase activities were evaluated using standard enzymatic inhibition assays, and IC
resultsGC-MS analysis revealed the presence of 13 compounds in CNEO, mainly oxygenated monoterpenes (91.9%) with pulegone (42.3%) as the main component, and 25 compounds in TVEO, with α-terpineol (19.8%) and carvacrol (13.5%) as the dominant compounds. CNEO showed superior anti-elastase activity (IC
conclusionThis study provides the first comprehensive assessment of the dermatoprotective, antifungal, and antibacterial activities of CNEO and confirms the potential of TVEO in cosmetic, antifungal, and antibacterial applications. The results suggest that these essential oils could serve as promising natural ingredients in dermatoprotective, antifungal, and antibacterial formulations.
