Effects of Germination on the Nutritional Profile of Five Distinct Pea Varieties.
Article in Molecules (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 effects of germination on pea composition have been established. However, the effects of germination on the nutritional profile of different pea varieties have not been extensively reported. Therefore, five varieties (Passion, Greenwood, Durwood, Agassiz, and Treasure) of peas were germinated for up to six days, and their nutrient profiles, protein digestibility, in vitro protein digestibility corrected amino acid score (IV-PDCAAS), and antioxidant activity (DPPH) were determined. In addition, B vitamins were determined for the first time in most of the varieties evaluated. Germination enhanced protein digestibility across all varieties, whereas IV-PDCAAS tended to decrease with increasing germination day. The impact of germination on starch content varied, with decreasing percentages found in some varieties and increased percentages found in others. Soluble fiber increased and insoluble fiber decreased with increasing germination days. Thiamine and niacin tended to increase with increasing germination day, while pyridoxine and folate decreased. The radical scavenging activity of the germinated peas increased with increasing germination days. Overall, germination tended to improve the nutritional composition of peas, with only a few exceptions. Furthermore, the interaction effects between variety and germination day support the importance of knowing both variety and length of germination when creating germinated pea products.
