1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: Researchers are always searching for chemicals with antioxidant properties. The cell wall polysaccharide of Materials and Methods: The effects of changing the parameters (temperature, time, and power of ultrasonic waves) used in the extraction of alginic acid were discussed based on changes in the antioxidant effect. After that, M/G (β-D-mannuronic acid to α-L-guluronic acid ratio) was measured using 1H NMR spectra, and the antioxidant activity of the extracted alginic acid was examined using the DPPH method. Results: The highest antioxidant effect was observed in sample No. 4 with an extraction temperature of 65°C, extraction duration of 25 min, and 640 W of ultrasonication power, whereas the lowest antioxidant effect was observed in sample No. 7 at 45°C, 20 min, and 480 W. Conclusion: Structural changes due to increasing temperature may cause less activity, whereas the optimum temperature was 65°C. There was no direct relationship between M/G and IC50, and it should be examined along with molecular weight. Increasing the intensity of the waves increased the antioxidant activity. The extraction yield can be increased by increasing A/W (Gram of algal sample per mL of solvent). It appears that the extraction under optimum conditions enhances the MM block epimer, which may lead to an increase in the antioxidant activity.
