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

backgroundAvocado (

methodsThe extraction variables included EtOH concentration (0-100%), temperature (13-47 °C for UAE and 55-95 °C for MAE), and time (3-37 min for UAE and 3-27 min for MAE). Total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and total phenolic compounds (TPC) were measured, while individual phenolics were analyzed via HPLC/MS.

resultsEtOH concentration was the most influential variable, with optimal conditions involving 94.55% EtOH and moderate temperatures over short times (45 °C for 5 min in UAE and 67 °C for 12 min in MAE). Both techniques yielded comparable results for effective conditions, though MAE required higher temperatures and longer times. In this sense, the data show that UAE extracted higher concentrations of procyanidins (+15%), demonstrating superior performance using a lower time and temperature, making it more efficient.

conclusionsUAE and MAE effectively extract antioxidants, promoting sustainability in the agri-food sector.
