Innovative coatings of Aloe Vera gel with salicylic acid and melatonin to preserve mango (Mangifera indica L.) fruit quality.
Article in BMC plant biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundMango fruit has a limited shelf life and is susceptible to rapid quality deterioration owing to its climacteric nature. This study aimed to investigate the effects of a newly developed Aloe vera (AV)-based edible coating containing melatonin (ML) and salicylic acid (SA) on postharvest quality preservation of mango fruits during storage (15 days at 20 ± 2 °C).
resultsThe results showed that the treated fruits exhibited a noticeably preserved quality compared to the control fruits, with the highest marketability observed in AV + ML and AV + SA. Fruit firmness was better maintained in the treated fruits, particularly in the AV + ML treatment (4.5 kg/cm
conclusionsThese findings highlight the effectiveness of AV + ML and AV + SA in preserving the postharvest quality of mango fruits, providing valuable insights into postharvest quality, and improving market acceptance.
