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

This study aimed to optimize the Maillard reaction (MR) conditions for instant green tea (GT), black tea (BT), and oolong tea (OT) and to characterize the aroma profiles of the resulting MR products (MRPs). Supercritical CO₂ pretreatment reduced tea polyphenols and caffeine in instant teas. Key parameters (time, pH, temperature, exogenous substrate ratio) were optimized for each instant tea. The MRPs developed desirable sweet, roasted, and caramel-like aroma attributes. Volatile analysis revealed that the MR increased the levels of ketones, aldehydes, and esters, while decreasing hydrocarbons in the MRPs. Based on odor activity value and chemometric analysis, key aroma-active compounds such as indole,
