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
Wild, edible lamb's ear mushrooms (Morchella spp.) are highly nutritious and have a distinctive aroma, making them popular worldwide. This study compared the nutritional composition and bioactive constituents of Morchella elata Fr. and Morchella esculenta (L.) Pers. collected from the province of Artvin in the Eastern Black Sea region of Türkiye. The dry matter content was approximately 18% in both species. Color analysis indicated that M. elata exhibited significantly lower Hunter L values (16.00), reflecting a darker appearance compared to M. esculenta (41.66 ± 0.31). Crude protein content was 24.85 ± 0.50 g/100 g DW in M. elata and 31.14 ± 0.50 g/100 g DW in M. esculenta. The total phenolic compound content was significantly higher in M. elata (15.76 ± 0.56 mg GAE/g DW) than in M. esculenta (7.41 ± 0.17 mg GAE/g DW). The antioxidant capacity of the methanolic extracts was measured using the FRAP and DPPH methods, and M. elata emerged as superior in that regard. HPLC-PDA analysis results revealed that M. elata is rich in protocatechuic acid and t-cinnamic acid, while M. esculenta has higher epicatechin, pinocembrin, and chrysin contents. The findings suggest that the dark-colored M. elata species may be more valuable than M. esculenta in terms of antioxidant capacity.
