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

Pingliang Red Cattle, a renowned geographical indication product in China, is distinguished by its superior meat quality, yet the scientific basis for its unique attributes remains underexplored. This study integrated metabolomic and transcriptomic analyses to elucidate the biochemical and physiological factors underlying the enhanced flavor, color stability, and tenderness of Pingliang Red Cattle beef compared to Qinchuan and Simmental cattle. Metabolomic profiling revealed significantly elevated levels of inosine monophosphate (IMP, 2.86-3.96× higher) and glutathione (GSH, 2.42-5.43× higher) in Pingliang Red Cattle, contributing to intense umami flavor and prolonged meat color retention. Notably, ergothioneine (EGT), a potent antioxidant, was identified for the first time in Pingliang Red Cattle beef, with concentrations 2.55× and 4.25× higher than in Qinchuan and Simmental, respectively. Transcriptomic analysis highlighted the upregulation of 21 tenderness-related genes (e.g.,
