Comparative phytochemical analysis and bioactive potential of white and black garlic.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The phenolic and organosulfur compound profiles of black garlic samples produced at different temperatures, humidity and durations were determined using liquid chromatography-electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS/MS) and their bioactive properties were compared with those of the white garlic samples. The total concentrations of the phenolic compounds in the white (fresh) garlic samples were observed at 24.15 mg/kg and it was found that caffeic and ferulic acids, epicatechin, apigenin and p-hydroxybenzoic acid were dominant. Resveratrol, which is present in trace amounts in fresh garlic, has shown a significant increase in black garlic. Allicin was found to be the predominant organosulfur compound in white garlic, whereas S-allyl-L-cysteine was dominant in black garlic. Antimicrobial activity and minimum inhibitory concentration of the garlic samples were evaluated on two test microorganisms (Staphylococcus auereus and Escherichia coli). The effects of the garlic extracts on cancer cell lines (A549, HuH-7, MCF-7, HCT-116) were also assessed. The anticancer effect of the black garlic extracts was observed at higher concentrations than the white garlic water extracts, but the white garlic and black garlic methanolic extracts were effective on all cancer cell lines within the concentration range used in the study.
