Applying Wild Mistol Fruits (Sarcomphalus Mistol) from the Paraguayan Chaco as Value-Added Food Ingredients.

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
Sarcomphalus mistol Griseb. (Rhamnaceae) is a fruit from a native tree, traditionally consumed by indigenous and rural communities in the Gran Chaco region. However, its nutritional value remains largely unexplored. This study analyzed mistol fruits and their derived value-added products, focusing on physicochemical composition, total phenolic content (TPC), and antioxidant capacity (ABTS). The fresh fruit (pulp and peel) had high levels of carbohydrates (43 g/100 g), dietary fibre (2.12 g/100 g) and minerals (Ca 105 mg/100 g, Mg 58.6 mg/100 g), as well as the highest phenolic content (682 mg GAE/100 g), with antioxidant potential (71.2 µM TEAC/g). Mistol marmalade had a higher energy density (249 kcal/100 g) and sugar content (60 g/100 g), but a significantly lower phenolic content (229 mg GAE/100 g) and antioxidant potential (4.5 µM TEAC/g), reflecting losses from thermal processing. The mistol-peanut-based beverage had a low energy value (59 kcal/100 g). Its lipid profile was dominated by oleic acid (81.4% Monounsaturated Fatty Acid - MUFA), which supports its nutritional benefits and oxidative stability. Overall, mistol is a nutrient and TPC-rich native fruit with cultural significance and versatility in food processing. Incorporating mistol fruit into innovative food formulations-particularly plant-based beverages-can create opportunities to diversify diets, promote functional food development, and strengthen the sustainable bioeconomy in the Gran Chaco region.
