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

Drying is key to green tea aroma. Solvent-assisted flavor evaporation-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and quantitative descriptive analysis were used to characterize the aroma profiles of sun-dried (SD), hot-air-dried (HD), and combination-dried (CD) green tea samples. Sun drying leads to the formation of sweet and floral aromas in green tea, whereas hot-air drying leads to the formation of malty, fatty, and roasted aromas. Gas chromatography-olfactometry and quantitative analysis were used to screen 24 key odorants, with an odor activity value of ≥1, primarily consisting of unsaturated fatty acid degradation products. These products included (
