Physicochemical and Sensory Properties and Antioxidant Activity of Xylitol Candies Containing Yuja (

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
Xylitol candies offer numerous health benefits such as preventing cavities and obesity. However, a preference for them tends to be low due to their distinctive flavor. In this study, we developed xylitol candies containing mature yuja peel (MYP-C), immature yuja peel (IYP-C), and yuja pulp (YP-C). To determine the optimal yuja added to xylitol candy, we compared and analyzed its physicochemical properties, sensory characteristics, and antioxidant activities. IYP-C and MYP-C significantly increased the naringin and hesperidin contents compared to the control and the YP-C. In particular, the IYP-C exhibited the highest content of flavonoids and polyphenols, which contributed to enhancing antioxidant activity such as ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), 1,1 diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), and 2,2'-azino-di-2 ethyl-benzothiazoline sulfonate (ABTS+) radical scavenging activities. The IYP-C had the highest crude ash content. The L*, a*, and b* values of MYP-C and IYP-C showed dark red and yellow colors compared to the CON and YP-C groups. The sensory analysis conducted using electronic tongue equipment revealed that IYP-C exhibited high levels of umami, sweetness, and bitterness, while YP-C showed the highest intensity of sourness. In conclusion, these results suggest that IYP-C rather than MYP-C and YP-C provide xylitol candy with good qualities in terms of antioxidant activities and physicochemical characteristics.
