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

Soy sauce aroma type Baijiu (SSAB) is a complex blend of seven rounds of raw SSAB, each with distinct aroma profiles that evolve during maturation. Tracking the aging of individual rounds is crucial for understanding flavor development. The round 1-4 SSABs were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and an electronic tongue over one-year aging. Results showed that short/medium-chain esters decrease while long-chain esters, acids, aldehydes, pyrazines, ketones, and furans increase. Kinetic analysis showed that short/medium-chain ethyl esters reach equilibrium in the esterification-hydrolysis reactions, whereas long-chain ethyl esters favor esterification, with their reaction quotient (Qc) diverging from the equilibrium point. Linoleic acid ethyl ester, identified as a key aging marker, was found to reduce the volatilization rate of critical aroma compounds in the finished glass, thereby prolonged the duration of lingering aromas. These findings provide a foundation for improving SSAB blending and storage, highlighting aging's key role in enhancing Baijiu quality.
