Nutraceutical, Physicochemical, and Sensory Properties of Blue Corn polvorones, a Traditional Flour-Based Confectionery.

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
Blue corn is an anthocyanin-rich material that can be used in the preparation of baking products. The aim of this work was to evaluate the physicochemical, nutraceutical, and sensory properties of polvorones (a traditional flour-based confectionery) made with whole blue-corn flour. All samples showed similar bromatological composition, but polvorones from whole blue-corn flour had a higher phenolics (837.1 mg gallic acid/kg) and anthocyanins (373.0 mg cyanidin-3-glucoside/kg) content, which exerted an influence on their higher antioxidant activity compared with wheat flour-based laboratory and commercial samples. The transformation of raw blue-corn flour into polvorones produced the degradation of some acylated anthocyanins into non-acylated forms. The substitution of wheat flour with whole blue-corn flour enhanced overall acceptability, as well as the color and flavor of polvorones. Our findings demonstrated that it is possible to use whole blue corn in the formulation of polvorones with more health beneficial properties and better consumer acceptability than refined wheat products.
