The Effect of Light in Vitamin C Metabolism Regulation and Accumulation in Mung Bean (Vigna radiata) Germination.
Article in Plant foods for human nutrition (Dordrecht, Netherlands), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Vitamin C, as an essential vitamin for humans, has important physiological functions, such as antioxidants and enzyme cofactors. Mung bean sprouts are a good source of vitamin C and light is an essential impact factor of vitamin C content during germination. This study focused on the kinetic changes and metabolic regulation mechanism of vitamin C during mung bean sprouting under three-light treatment including constant light (24 h light/0 h dark), semi-light (12 h light/12 h dark) and constant dark (0 h light/24 h dark). Results confirmed that vitamin C content increased with the raised of light time during germination. The highest level of vitamin C, appeared on three days after constant light treatment (3-DALT), was 78 - fold higher than the initial concentration. L-ascorbic acid content on 3-DALT of mung bean sprouts was 21.4 and 29.8 times higher compared to the value on day 3 with semi -light treatment and constant dark treatment, respectively. Additionally, PMI, GME, GLDH, GalUR and DHAR expressions had strong correlations with L-ascorbic acid and vitamin C responding to light. Results indicated that light had an intimate correlation with the component and biosynthesis of vitamin C.
