Comparative Cytotoxicity Evaluation of Heat-Assisted
Article in Food technology and biotechnology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Research background: Preparation of medicinal fungi for experimental purposes usually involves the extraction and determination of the quality and quantity of bioactive compounds prior to the biological experiment. Water, a common polar solvent, is usually used for traditional preparations for consumption. The application of high temperatures during water extraction can affect the chemical composition and functional properties of the extracts. Therefore, the aim of this study is to compare the differences in composition between extracts obtained with heat-assisted and cold water extractions of six selected species of fungi ( Experimental approach: The extracts obtained with heat-assisted and cold water extraction of six species of fungi were analysed to determine their protein, carbohydrate and phenolic contents. Their cytotoxicity was tested against lung (A549) and breast (MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231) cancer cell lines. The most potent extract was further separated into its protein and non-protein fractions to determine their respective cytotoxicity. Results and conclusions: The cytotoxicity of the different extracts obtained with heat-assisted and cold water extraction varied. Comparing the two extractions, the cold water extraction resulted in a significantly higher yield of proteins (except Novelty and scientific contribution: This study reports the advantage of cold water extracts of fungi over those obtained with heat-assisted extraction in terms of cytotoxicity against human cancer cell lines and emphasises the role of extraction conditions, particularly heat, in influencing chemical composition and cytotoxic effects.
