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

A sequential combination of laccase pretreatment and acid extraction of pectin from pomelo peels was performed in this study. By using a laccase dose of 10 U/g, the yield and galacturonic acid content of the extracted pectin were 21.67% and 75.74%, respectively, which reflected an improvement by nearly 30% and 44% relative to the extraction process without laccase. Moreover, the degree of esterification of the extracted pectin was significantly improved as the laccase concentration was increased from 0 to 10 U/g but did not affect the molecular weight. Besides, the enzyme-treated sample displayed more than 29% loss of total lignin, in which the acid soluble lignin and the acid insoluble lignin were removed by over 15% and 33%, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy indicated that the penetration and partial destruction of the pomelo peel cell wall due to laccase might be one of the main reasons why laccase pretreatment could release pectin from cell wall complexes and increase the pectin yield in subsequent acid extraction processes.
