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
In recent decades, kombucha, a beverage produced through the fermentation of tea leaves by a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeasts (SCOBY), has gained considerable popularity and attracted increasing scientific interest. However, the influence of SCOBY composition on kombucha characteristics remains insufficiently explored. In the present study, green tea kombuchas fermented with four different SCOBYs (SCs) were monitored over 21 days through physicochemical (pH), biochemical (total soluble solids (TSS), ethanol, proteins, and phenolic compounds), and microbiological (yeasts, acetic acid bacteria, and lactic acid bacteria) analyses. Based on these parameters, the most suitable bottling time was established for each kombucha (7 days for SC3 and SC4; 10 days for SC1 and SC2), considering acceptable and safe pH values, reduced TSS levels (4.3-4.6 °Brix), ethanol concentrations below 1.2%, and increased protein and phenolic compound contents, all of them differently affected by the SC used. At the selected bottling stages, the kombuchas exhibited DPPH
