Preservation of bioactive compounds in mulberry species (Morus spp.) under different drying conditions.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
This study aimed to investigate the changes in the free amino acid profile, mineral content, phenolic compounds, and antioxidant activity of three mulberry species white (Morus alba), red (Morus rubra), and black (Morus nigra) following different drying methods (shade drying, and controlled drying at 55 and 65 °C). The results indicated that drying temperature significantly affected the retention of bioactive compounds. In the amino acid analyses, the highest proline content was recorded in white mulberry dried under shade conditions, reaching 834.80 mg/100 g. The GABA content was found to be 336.17 mg/100 g in red mulberry. In the mineral analyses, calcium content was determined as 4474 mg/kg in white mulberry and 10,660 mg/kg in red mulberry. Regarding phenolic content, shade-dried red mulberry showed the highest level at 10.34 mg GAE/g, followed by black mulberry at 9.69 mg GAE/g and white mulberry at 2.86 mg GAE/g. The highest antioxidant activity was observed in red mulberry, with a value of 47.68%. Overall, the findings suggest that low-temperature drying, particularly shade drying, is the most effective method for preserving the bioactive components of mulberry fruits.
