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

This study aimed to optimize the simultaneous production of D-mannose and bioethanol from spent coffee grounds (SCGs) using an integrated process involving pretreatment, enzymatic hydrolysis, and selective fermentation. Sequential alkali, bleaching, and NaOH‑hydrogen peroxide pretreatment steps increased the total sugar content to 74.1 %, with mannose and glucose reaching 45.2 % and 27.2 %, respectively, while effectively removing lignin, as confirmed by colorimetric and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance analyses. Enzymatic hydrolysis with cellulase and mannanase produced high concentrations of glucose (15.3 mg/mL) and mannose (10.6 mg/mL). To optimize fermentation, a mutant strain of
