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

Low-temperature storage is an effective method to extend the shelf life of harvested winter jujube fruit; however, the quality of winter jujube fruit decreases after refrigeration. To enhance the quality of winter jujube with minimum qualitative deterioration during cold storage, this study investigated the effects of different melatonin concentration (100, 150, and 200 µmol/L) treatments on the storage quality of winter jujube (during the white ripening stage) at 0 ± 1 °C (RH, 90 ± 5%) for 90 days. The relative indexes of the fruit quality and the antioxidant system were measured every 15 days. The results showed that different concentrations of melatonin treatments could maintain the fruit's firmness, retard the fruit's redness, and inhibit the decrease in weight, total soluble solid (TSS), titratable acidity (TA), and the contents of total phenols, flavonoids, glutathione, and ascorbic acid; they also inhibited the increase in relative conductivity, malondialdehyde (MDA), and hydrogen peroxide (H
