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

This study aimed to evaluate the influence of ultrasonic degradation on Houttuynia cordata polysaccharide (HCP) physicochemical properties, structure characterization, and bioactivities. The results indicated that the ultrasonic degradation could significantly decrease HCP's molecular weight (MW). Total polysaccharide, uronic acid content, solubility, and thermal stability of HCP increased gradually with the increase in ultrasonication power. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) spectra proved that the primary structure of HCP had not been changed via ultrasonic degradation. Antioxidant and hypoglycemic activity results confirmed that ultrasonication enhanced the ability to scavenge free radicals (DPPH, ABTS, and OH) and improved α-glycosidase and α-amylase inhibition with the increase of ultrasonic power, which was increased in order HCP <U200 < U400 < U600. The degraded HCP produced via 600 W presented the best physicochemical properties and bioactivities. U600, α-amylase and α-glycosidase inhibition activities were 43.80 ± 0.68 and 83.28 ± 2.56 %, which were higher than those of native HCP 38.40 ± 0.53 and 65.67 ± 0.54 %, respectively, at a concentration of 10 mg/mL HCP solution. These results suggested that ultrasonication could be used as a green method for polysaccharide degradation and showed potential application for enhancing polysaccharide bioactivities for functional foods and pharmaceutical applications.
