Phytochemical and metabolic changes associated with ripening of Lycopersicon esculentum.
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
Four tomato genotypes GT-2, GT-6, GT-7, and DVRT were analysed for phytochemical and metabolic changes at different stages of ripening. Reducing sugar and soluble protein content reached up to 93.90% and 26.78% from green to red ripened phases, respectively, with varying maturity stages. The tomato fruit maturation stages were found to substantially alter the total phenol content (P < 0.05), with an overall increase of 8.9% total phenol content from the green to red ripening stage of the tomato while the ascorbate level grew 11.36% from green to orange stage and then slightly declined (1.68%) at red ripened stage. Lycopene concentration climbed up to 36.59% from green to red ripened stage. HPTLC analysis confirmed Arg, Cys, Val, Leu, Tyr, and Thr decreased as the fruit ripened, whereas Ala, Pro, Ile, Lys, and His increased. The non targated compound analysis with GC-MS/MS established the presence of hydroxymethylfurfural and proline during fruit ripening.
