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 green synthesis of multifunctional Ag/ZnO nanodots using Artemisia austroyunnanensis leaf extract was explored for their antibacterial, antioxidant, and anticancer properties. Characterization techniques confirmed the successful synthesis of nanodots with a nanoscale size (9.02 ± 1.58 nm), high crystallinity, and distinct ZnO and Ag phases. The synthesized nanodots exhibited significant antibacterial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, with the largest zone of inhibition observed for Salmonella typhimurium (21 ± 1 mm at 300 µg/mL). Antioxidant assays demonstrated robust free radical scavenging activity, particularly in the ABTS assay (IC
