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

There is a lack of theoretical evidence regarding the transformation of the aroma of Pu-erh tea (raw tea) during long-term storage. In this study, we comprehensively investigate the aroma characteristics of Pu-erh tea (raw tea) from the same manufacturer, stored for different storage times (7-21 years). Sensory evaluation and qualitative and quantitative analysis of volatile substances were performed on the experimental samples. The results showed that the aroma of Pu-erh tea (raw tea) changed from fruity/floral to smoky and fragrance during the storage process. A total of 290 volatiles were identified by HS-SPME/GC×GC-Q-TOF-MS. The key substances for the fruity/floral aroma are fenchene, (E)-1,2,3-trimethyl-4-propenyl-Naphthalene, (+/--theaspirane, and decanal, and the key substances for the smoky aroma were 2-ethyl-Furan, camphene, 1-methyl-4-(1-methylethenyl)-Benzene, and cis-
