Distribution of phytochelatins, metal-binding compounds, in plant foods: A survey of commonly consumed fruits, vegetables, grains and legumes.
Article in Food chemistry, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Phytochelatins (PyCs) are metal-binding compounds produced by plants. PyCs may reduce bioavailability of dietary toxic metals such as cadmium. However, the PyC concentrations in foods are unknown. The objective of this study was to analyze PyC contents in a subset of commonly consumed plant foods. Foods (20) across five groups were analyzed and PyCs quantified using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The impact of factors such as food processing were also explored. PyCs were in all 20 foods. Five PyC types were detected with PyC
