Enhanced Minor Ginsenoside Contents of Nano-Sized Black Korean Ginseng through Hot Melt Extrusion.
Article in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Black ginseng (BG), a traditional medicinal herb produced through a nine-stage steaming and drying process, exhibits stronger pharmacological efficacy, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancer properties, when compared to white and red ginseng. The ginsenosides in BG are classified as major and minor types, with minor ginsenosides demonstrating superior pharmacological properties. However, their low concentrations limit their availability for research and clinical applications. In this study, hot melt extrusion (HME) was utilized as an additional processing technique to enhance the content of minor ginsenoside in BG, and the physicochemical properties of the formulation were analyzed. Ginsenoside content in BG and HME-treated BG (HME-BG) was analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), while their physicochemical properties were evaluated through dynamic light scattering (DLS), electrophoretic light scattering (ELS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). HME treatment resulted in a significant increase in minor ginsenosides Rg3 and compound K (CK) by 330% and 450%, respectively, while major ginsenosides Rg1 and Rb1 decreased or were not detected. Additionally, HME-BG demonstrated reduced particle size, improved PDI, and decreased crystallinity. HME treatment effectively converts major ginsenosides in BG into minor ginsenosides, enhancing its pharmacological efficacy and showing great potential for research and development applications.
