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

The global demand for nutrient-rich functional rice is rapidly increasing. However, the metabolic mechanisms underlying the high-nutrient functionality of special rice remain inadequately understood. In this study, we developed 26 novel special rice accessions. Using a widely targeted metabolomics approach, we identified and classified 1347 metabolites. The metabolite profiles of these accessions exhibited substantial differentiation, with 204-629 differentially accumulated metabolites identified. Notably, pigmented giant embryo glutinous (PGEG) rice integrated a diverse array of bioactive compounds and nutrients from pigmented rice and giant embryo glutinous rice. It was particularly enriched in γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), flavonoids, phenolic acids, alkaloids, and other physiologically active substances. Key metabolic pathways (including the biosynthesis of flavone, flavonol, and flavonoid) were significantly enriched in differential metabolites between white/glutinous and PGEG rice. These findings provide a comprehensive understanding of the metabolite profiles of special rice varieties and offer valuable insights for breeding future high-nutrient functional rice.
