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

Aging in crops like tea and tobacco involves the production of secondary metabolites, with symbiotic microbes playing a key role. However, their dynamic changes and correlation with metabolites during aging remain poorly understood. This study investigates changes in microbial communities, aroma compounds, and protein expression during tobacco leaf aging using artificial accelerated aging techniques, which combine GC-MS, metagenomics, and metaproteomics methods. We identified 62 aroma compounds with distinct change patterns and observed significant changes in the structure of symbiotic bacteria. Type one, represented by Wolbachia_endosymbiont_of_Diaphorina_citri, increased in abundance from the fourth month, correlating with compounds like 2-Furaldehyde. Type two, represented by Sphingomonas_sp_LK11, showed a bimodal abundance pattern, correlating with compounds like Tabanone. Metaproteomics revealed that protein functions were initially limited to cytoskeleton organization but diversified from the fourth month. Fungi also displayed two distinct clustering patterns, Rhizopus and Mortierella elongata were abundant early on, while Colletotrichum asianum and Trichophyton violaceum appeared later. Rhizopus and other fungi exhibited a significant positive correlation with 24 aroma compounds, including 5-Methylfuran-2(5 H)-one. Linderina pennispora and other fungi showed a significant positive correlation with 28 aroma compounds, including 2-Furaldehyde. The dynamic changes in microbial community structure during aging are closely related to the generation of aroma compounds. Overall, temporal shifts in microbial communities were closely linked to aroma formation. One set of microorganisms, such as Wolbachia_endosymbiont_of_Diaphorina_citri and Linderina pennispora, is positively correlated with 2-Furaldehyde, Isophorone, and 2-Methylbenzofuran. Another set, including Sphingomonas_sp_LK11 and Rhizopus, exhibits a positive correlation with 5-Methylfuran-2(5 H)-one and 1,2-Cyclohexanedione. These findings provide new insights into the biological mechanisms of tobacco leaf aging, and offer new research directions for the development and innovation of future tobacco products.
