Use of culinary ingredients as protective components during thermal heating of pumpkin oil.
Article in Food chemistry: X, 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
Pumpkin seeds are often discarded due to limited awareness of their benefits, yet they yield an oil rich in monounsaturated, polyunsaturated, and saturated fatty acids, with notable levels of oleic acid (>30 %) and linoleic acid (>50 %). The oil also contains nutritionally valuable unsaponifiable components, qualifying it as a functional food. Culinary ingredients like merkén and clove, used in various dishes, offer additional properties. This study examines the effect of heat treatment on the fatty acid profile and oxidative stability of pumpkin seed oil, both pure (UPO) and enriched with merkén (UPOM) or clove (UPOC), using chromatographic and spectrophotometric methods. Enrichment with merkén and clove showed a protective effect, with UPOC preserving PUFAs and minimizing oxidation. UPOC displayed superior stability (>40 days) compared to UPOM and heated oil (UPOH, <40 days), suggesting its effectiveness in maintaining oil quality during thermal degradation.
