Effect of different preparation methods on the quality of carrot preserves: Chemical composition, textural properties, and volatile compounds.

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
Systematic comparisons of quality impacts of various carrot preserve preparation techniques remain scarce. We compared candied carrot preserves (CCP), salted sugar crystallised carrot preserves (SSCP), and non-enzymatic browning-treated carrot preserves (NEBCP) for chemical composition, texture, and aroma. CCP better preserved carotenoids. NEBCP exhibited the highest total polyphenol content, 5.24-fold that of fresh carrots (FC), and retained more dietary fibre and protein. Its total carbohydrate content was 0.41-fold that of CCP, and sodium content was 0.043-fold that of SSCP. Headspace solid-phase microextraction coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME/GC-MS) identified 115 volatile compounds. Relative to FC, alcohols, ketones, esters, phenols, and hydrocarbons decreased in CCP and SSCP, while NEBCP showed increased levels of acids, aldehydes, lactones, and heterocyclic compounds from Maillard reactions and carotenoid degradation. Sensory evaluation indicated that NEBCP scored higher than CCP and SSCP. These findings provide insights for developing low-sugar, low-salt nutritious carrot preserves.
