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
Carrots are among the most crucial and globally preferred vegetables, widely recognized for their importance as a source of phytonutrients, including phenolic compounds, carotenoids, polyacetylenes, and ascorbic acid. However, its production phase incurs substantial losses, estimated at 30 %; these discarded carrots typically find application in animal feed, composting material or organic waste. Therefore, this study aims to develop a methodological framework focusing on the application of a phytochemical bioprospecting process based on scientific surveillance; using carrot crop by-products as a foundational example. Advanced methodologies, such as bibliometric, scientometric, and patent analyses, supported by technological tools such as VOSviewer and Patent Inspiration, were employed. This involved the creation of scientific landscapes, trend maps and co-occurrence networks, intending to explore the potential of carrot crop by-products, their applicability in generating new knowledge, and their utilization in the industry. This approach facilitated the identification of emerging trends in scientific research, providing a comprehensive view of commercial and industrial areas of interest, with a focus on circular economic principles. Furthermore, the study emphasized the importance of bioprospecting, supported by these methodologies and technological tools, as a key factor in the research process on the potential uses of carrot crop by-products, which could extend to other matrices.
