Effect of Baking Conditions on Mycotoxin Levels in Flatbreads Prepared from Artificially Contaminated Doughs.
Article in Foods (Basel, Switzerland), 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 investigated the impact of baking conditions on mycotoxin content in Greek pita bread, a single-layered flatbread baked at high temperatures for short time intervals. Dough samples were artificially contaminated with a multi-mycotoxin mixture, including aflatoxins (AFs) G2, G1, B2, and B1; ochratoxin A (OTA); deoxynivalenol (DON); and zearalenone (ZEA). Flatbreads were baked under three temperature-time combinations (220, 270, and 320 °C for 4, 2, and 1 min, respectively), with additional evaluation of a parbaking process (baking halted at 75% of the total time for each respective temperature, bread was stored at -18 °C, then bread was baked for 3 min at 180 °C). A QuEChERS-LC-MS/MS method was implemented for the determination of mycotoxins. The results demonstrated varying degrees of thermal degradation, with AFs B1 and G1 showing the highest decrease (39% on average), followed by AFG2, AFB2, ZEA, and DON (16-25%), while OTA remained relatively thermostable. Multivariate analyses classified flatbreads into two groups: higher baking temperatures and parbaking favored reductions in AFG1, AFG2, ZEA, OTA, and AFB2 levels while longer baking times at lower temperatures favored DON and AFB1 reduction. These findings provide insights for optimizing baking conditions to improve food safety in industrial and home-baking applications.
