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

To mitigate the rapid ripening by afternoon high temperature in semi-arid wine regions, grapevine artificial shading was applied in a three-year experiment (2021-2023) in China. The moderate shading (1.5 h, MD) and strong shading (2.5 h, SD) were applied in the afternoon. Climatic parameters were collected, grape and wine flavonoids were determined by HPLC-MS. Results revealed that shading reduced the berry surface temperature by up to 4 °C and delayed sugar accumulation, resulting in grapes with higher acidity (∼1 g/L) and lower Brix (∼0.5 °Brix) at harvest. MD and SD wines had lower flavonols, red hue, and anthocyanin derivates. Specific non-methylated anthocyanins and kaempferol-based flavonols were bioindicators of solar radiation. Wine flavor and aging chemistry were also investigated. Overall, afternoon shading delays grape ripening and regulates grape flavonoid profiles and thus modifies wine appearance and flavor. This study provides insights into regulating grape and wine quality in semi-arid regions.
