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

Buckwheat germination can increase bioactive compounds; however, it also increases moisture content, which then requires drying and roasting. This study focused on applying hot air-assisted radio frequency (HARF) roasting to germinated buckwheat (GB) tea to improve the tea quality and processing efficiency. Seeds were soaked in reverse osmosis water for 6 h, followed by germination at 25 °C for 24 h. HARF roasting (100 °C, 10 kW, 16 cm gap) rapidly heated one bucket (2 kg) and two buckets (2 + 2 kg) of GB to 140 °C in only 22 and 20 min, respectively, to reduce the moisture content from 40% to 5%. HARF roasting could save about 1/5 time and 1/11~1/18 energy compared with a cyclonic oven at 140 °C for 100 min roasting to 120 °C. GC-IMS and sensory evaluation indicated a superior aroma, taste, and higher overall acceptability for HARF-roasted GB tea. These results demonstrate that GB using HARF roasting enhances the functional, sensory, and industrial value of buckwheat tea.
