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

Short-term germination has been applied to different conventional and unconventional legume seeds to increase nutritional values, beneficial health effects, and techno-functional characteristics for diverse food applications. Nonetheless, the potential impact on black turtle beans (BTBs) is limited in literature. This study examines the compositional, bioactivity, functional, pasting, thermal, and color characteristics of BTBs over a 72 h germination period. On a time-dependent basis, germination increased (p ≤ 0.05) α-amylase activity, protein, insoluble, soluble, and total dietary fiber, resistant starch, minerals, vitamins (B
