Fruit and vegetable preservation from classical to advanced nanotechnology: an overview of efficacy and health concerns.
Review in Food chemistry: X, 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
For a long time, classical food preservation methods have been employed to control deterioration in fruits and vegetables. However, these methods exhibit several limitations and may not be entirely successful in managing food waste. Lately, nanotechnology has emerged as a novel approach to compensate for the disadvantages of currently used methods. Eventually, nanotechnology utilization is still in its infancy and requires rigorous evaluation. In this review, we aimed to explore the efficacy of nanotechnology in preserving fresh produce and highlight its potential applications. Apparently, various nanoparticles applied during pre or postharvest significantly extended the shelf life of fruits and vegetables. Choosing the appropriate nanoparticles and mode of application might significantly impact their effectiveness. Yet, concerns regarding nanoparticles' safety and commercial availability could hinder their broad applications. In summary, nanoparticles alone or combined with classical methods hold promise in preserving fresh produce, but more efforts are required to advance their practical usage.
