Metabolomic analysis reveals the browning related enzymes and metabolic pattern differences in apples of different storage periods.

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
This study aimed to investigated metabolism and browning-related enzyme differences of Fuji apples in fresh (FC), browning pulp (BR), and browning inhibition pulp (CM) at 0, 4, 6, and 8 months of storage. Apples stored for 4-months exhibited the highest browning rate and color differences, with browning inhibition effectiveness decreasing over time. PPO and POD activity increased, while CAT and SOD decreased. Untargeted metabolomics revealed differential metabolites (445, 468, 265) in FC, BR, and CM among four-storage, mainly related to carbohydrate, lipid, and amino acid metabolism. In BR vs. FC, differential metabolites were primarily enriched in secondary metabolite biosynthesis (within 6-months) and energy metabolism (after 8-months). In CM vs. FC, differential metabolites were significantly enriched in nitrogen metabolism. Nitrogen metabolite accumulation induces browning, which can be mitigated by CaCl
