Detection of Serotonin, Melatonin, and Their Metabolites in Honey.
Article in ACS food science & technology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Melatonin and serotonin, products of tryptophan metabolism, are endogenous neurotransmitters and hormones. We have identified and quantified these metabolites in natural honey from Australia, USA, and Poland using a Xevo G2 XS qTof LC-MS. To help ensure correct product identification, some samples were prepurified by RP-HPLC based on the retention times of standards, prior to LC-MS. The concentrations of the metabolites of interest depended on the source of the honey. For Australian honey, levels for melatonin and 2-hydroxymelatonin were 0.91 and 0.68 ng/g, respectively. Melatonin was detected in one brand of US commercial honey at 0.48 ng/g, while a second brand contained serotonin at 88.2 ng/g. In Polish natural honey, 20.6 ng/g of serotonin and 40.8 ng/g of
