Detection and comparative analysis of VOCs between tomato and pepper based on GC×GC-TOFMS.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
This study aimed to identify and compare the flavor substances in mature tomato and pepper fruits using flavoromics based on GC×GC-TOF-MS. A total of 1560 volatile substances were identified, including 627 tomato specific substances and 534 pepper specific substances. Esters were identified as the distinguishing factor in the aroma profiles of the two. ROAV, an effective flavor evaluation criterion, can help identify the main contributors to flavor that can be detected by the taste buds. VOCs with ROAV > 1 are typically regarded as the key flavor contributors. Interestingly, it was found that tomato and pepper shared three common VOCs (2-nonenal, (E)-; 2-octenal, (E)-; and furan, 2-pentyl-.), which exhibited higher ROAV in both. Except for the three common VOCs, heptanal; 2-dodecenal, (E)-; 1-octen-3-one; 2-undecanone in tomato and pyrazine, 2-methoxy-3-(2-methylpropyl)- in pepper were identified to be contributive to their corresponding aromatic flavor (ROVA > 1), respectively. The contents of 138 volatile metabolites differ between tomato and pepper. Among them, acetoin, dodecanal and 1-decanol demonstrated highest fold change (Log
