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

Although Arctium lappa L. polysaccharides (ALPs) possess recognized pharmacological potential, their green extraction using deep eutectic solvents (DESs) combined with ultrasound has not been previously explored. This study reports, for the first time, an optimized DES-based ultrasound-assisted extraction (DES-UAE) protocol for ALPs. Response surface optimization identified the following conditions: choline chloride/oxalic acid molar ratio of 2:1, water content of 18.508%, liquid-to-solid ratio of 37.425 mL/g, extraction time of 97.262 min, and ultrasonic power of 275.787 W, yielding 16.581% polysaccharides. Sequential chromatographic purification afforded a homogeneous fraction, ALPs-1, with a weight-average molecular weight of 8827 Da. Monosaccharide analysis revealed that ALPs-1 is composed of rhamnose, glucuronic acid, glucose, and galactose at a molar ratio of 2.18:1.00:6.62:7.17. Functionally, ALPs-1 exhibited moderate α-glucosidase inhibition, weak DPPH• scavenging, and notable ABTS•
