Development of Subcritical Water Extraction for Areca Alkaloids and Its Influence on the Structure of Areca Nut Husk.

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
The optimal process parameters of subcritical water extraction (SWE) for areca alkaloids in areca nut (AN) husk were described: extraction temperature of 110.87 °C, liquid-to-solid ratio of 18.98:1 and extraction time of 50.01 min. It was found that the factors influencing the process in order of significance were extraction time > extraction temperature > liquid-to-solid ratio. Considering practical conditions, the parameters were adjusted to the extraction temperature of 110 °C, the liquid-to-solid ratio of 19:1 and the extraction time of 50 min. The measured extraction rate was 81.7%, which is close to the predicted value, indicating that the extraction process optimized by Response Surface Methodology (RSM) is feasible. Meanwhile, preliminary results from XRD and FT-IR indicated that SWE had a significant influence on the structure of the AN husk, possibly by damaging some of the crystalline regions of cellulose in the AN husk or reducing the concentration of various functional groups. Overall, this study provided valuable insights in the SWE for areca alkaloids and its influence on the structure of areca nut husk, and further exploration for industrialization is still under development in our laboratory.
