Enhancement of antioxidative potential of mung bean by oxygen plasma irradiation of seeds.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. 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 present study aimed to assess the effect of oxygen plasma treatment on the germination rate, growth, and antioxidative activity of mung beans at different pressures and irradiation exposure times. Oxygen plasma was capable of shortening the germination time as well as improving the germination rate at each gas pressure and exposure time compared to control. The germination rate of plasma-treated seeds exceeded 90% within 18 h of seeding compared to 30 h for the control (without plasma treatment). Stem length increased by 25.42 to 52.88% depending on the pressure and exposure time compared to control. Vitamin C content in the stem and root increased from 1.49 to 1.97 and 1.27 to 2.04-fold higher, respectively, depending on the pressure and exposure time compared to control; while in the case of thiol content, it was 1.16 to 2.76 and 1.09 to 2.49-fold higher in the stem and root, respectively. Plasma treatment increased antioxidant potency compared to control. Maximum antioxidant potency was found at 30-min exposure time, although the alterations in pressure did not elicit prominent changes. Plant growth, vitamin C and thiol contents, and antioxidant potency were increased with increasing pressure up to 60 Pa, which then declined with higher pressure. On the other hand, these parameters decreased with a longer exposure time, except for the antioxidants. Thiol and vitamin C contents were associated with plant growth.
