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
Purpurogallin (PPG) is a phenolic compound known for its high antioxidant properties in plant-based food materials. However, there is no easy and reliable method for direct determination of PPG in brewed beverages owing to its hydrophobicity, which makes it hard to separate from the background hydrophobic components. Therefore, a method employing solid-phase extraction (SPE) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) was developed for detection and quantification of PPG in brewed beverages, and PPG content was quantified in commercial coffee, cocoa, and tea samples. The limits of detection and quantification were 71.8 and 155.6 ng/g dry weight (dw), respectively. The recovery with SPE was 26.6%. When combined with acetonitrile extraction (ANE), the recovery was 6.8%, higher than 2.6% with water extraction (WTE). Test tube extractions were better than moka pot brewing (MPB) for PPG quantification. Total PPG content of ground coffees prepared by ANE, WTE, and MPB ranged between 635 and 770, 455 and 630, and 85 and 135 ng/g dw, respectively. PPG was detected in two English breakfast tea samples (335−360 ng/g dw) using WTE, but not in cocoa samples. ANE showed higher (p < 0.05) PPG levels, but WTE (r = 0.55, p < 0.01) correlated better with MPB than ANE (r = 0.43, p < 0.01). The result indicated that WTE is the best method to determine PPG in brewed beverages. This work demonstrated that PPG was significant in brewed coffee, and our pioneer study in developing the method for beverage sample preparation and LC-MS analysis has made possible industrial applications and provided new perspectives for future research.
