Effects of freeze-thaw cycles on the quality and flavor profiles of stir-fried ZhiJiang duck.
Article 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
To investigate the effects of four freeze-thaw (F-T) cycles on the quality, protein properties, and volatile flavor compounds of stir-fried Zhijiang duck meat, providing a scientific basis for mitigating deterioration. The results indicated that the pH value, water-holding capacity, chewiness, and total sulfhydryl content decreased significantly with more F-T cycles. Conversely, the content of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS), acid content, carbonyl content, and total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) increased significantly with increasing F-T cycles. After 3 cycles, TVB-N reached 20.83 mg/100 g, above the spoilage limit. The α-helix content decreased from 17.87 % to 7.73 %. Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining showed that more F-T cycles caused irreversible cellular damage. The odor profile changed significantly after 3 cycles. The relative contents and diversity of alcohols, aldehydes, and ketones increased with the number of F-T cycles. Octanal, nonanal, and (E, E)-2,4-decadienal contributed to flavor at early, middle, and late stages of F-T cycles.
