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

The main objective of this study was to investigate the effect of low-level light emitting diode (LED) irradiation on the metabolite profile of pak-choi. A total of 633 different molecular features (MFs) were identified among sample groups (initial, dark-treated, light-treated) using an untargeted metabolomic approach. The identified metabolites were associated with 24 different metabolic pathways. Four of the pathways including carbon pool by folate, folate biosynthesis, thiamine metabolism, and glutathione metabolism, all of which are associated with vitamin biosynthesis, changed significantly. Metabolites in four of the pathways exhibited significant differences from the control in response to LED irradiation. Additionally, porphyrin and chlorophyll metabolism, as well as glucosinolate biosynthesis, riboflavin metabolism, and carotenoid biosynthesis were positively induced by LED irradiation. These results indicate that postharvest LED illumination represents a potential tool for modifying the metabolic profile of pak-choi to maintain quality and nutritional levels.
