Optical Rotation-A Reliable Parameter for Authentication of Honey?
Article in Molecules (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The controversial question of whether optical rotation data can be used to distinguish floral from honeydew honey was investigated. Specific optical rotation angles were determined for 41 honey samples, including floral, honeydew, and adulterated honey, indicating that moderate to high positive optical rotation angles were found for all adulterated samples measured. A strong correlation between the sugar profile and the specific optical rotation angle of honey was confirmed, and a method based on
