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

The objective of this study was to assess and compare the characteristics of different soybean pastes by using intelligent sensory analysis. In this study, color, flavor, texture, and taste were regarded as four factors affecting the sensory quality of soybean pastes and the sensory quality of four different soybean pastes was evaluated using fuzzy mathematics. The sensory evaluation scores of samples L, Z, and W were very similar and significantly higher than that of sample Y. Gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS) detected 111 volatile flavor compounds, with acids, alcohol, and ketones having a significantly higher relative content than other compounds, indicating their vital role in the flavor formation process of soybean pastes. Furthermore, partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) model analysis identified 41 marker compounds that could differentiate the four types of soybean pastes. The overall odor and flavor profile were detected by the E-nose and E-tongue. These fundamental results lay the groundwork for future research on the similarities and differences between the flavor characteristics of different brands of soybean paste.
