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

Tropical fruits are often studied to determine their content of bioactive compounds that contain health-enhancing properties and are often identified to hold a rich nutritional composition. Their bioactive compounds are classified through their phenolic, flavonoid, and antioxidant properties, while some tropical fruits are known to have other properties such as anticancer and anti-inflammatory activity. Sri Lanka is an island with abundant resources. One such resource is exotic fruits. Exotic fruits are known as edible fruits, which are not necessarily native but consist of a unique flavor profile, fragrance, shape, or appearance. Exotic fruits are usually consumed on their own or consumed as beverages, pickles, jams, salads, and desserts. The market-friendly tropical fruits in Sri Lanka include a vast number, and some of them are mango, Ceylon olives, durian, jackfruit, rambutan, soursop, passion fruit, and star fruit. These fruits contribute to the rice culinary heritage of Sri Lanka, and most of them are exported worldwide. At present, the traditional medicine system is quite popular among the public due to its less toxic nature and easy access. This review is aimed at evaluating the antioxidant, cytotoxic, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory properties of eight selected exotic fruits mentioned above and their traditional usage, which is based on the literature of various scientific studies conducted on these tropical fruits.
