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

This study evaluated how genotype and origin shape the polyphenolic profile and antioxidant capacity of highbush blueberries grown under harmonized orchard conditions (19 genotypes, including somaclonal variants). Comprehensive profiling covered phenolic subclasses (anthocyanins, flavonols, phenolic acids, flavan-3-ols), antioxidant capacity (ABTS, DPPH, FRAP), and color (CIE L*), supported by multivariate analyses. Key results with numerical context. Among cultivars, Brigitta and Draper showed the highest totals of polyphenols (≈511.8-517.3) and anthocyanins (≈310.9-311.5). When comparing matched cultivar names by origin, German-sourced lines generally contained more anthocyanins and polyphenols than Polish-produced counterparts: for Duke, anthocyanins 208.4 vs 78.7-152.2 and polyphenols 401.2 vs 236.9-363.5; for Patriot, 286.9 vs 65.2-245.2 and 495.8 vs 293.5-409.0; for Sunrise, 258.8 vs 172.8-221.5 and 424.6 vs 342.0-411.1 (ANOVA/Tukey, p < 0.05 where indicated in tables). Antioxidant assays reflected these patterns with cultivar-dependent nuances: for example, Duke from Poland (DK10) showed higher ABTS (28.0) than the German source (11.1), whereas DPPH differences were modest for Patriot (≈13.8-14.1). Color supported the chemistry: Polish-produced fruits were lighter on average (higher CIE L*), consistent with lower anthocyanins. Genotype × origin interactions are decisive for blueberry chemotype and antioxidant properties. The quantitative differences reported here strengthen the case for authentication and source-aware selection in breeding, nursery supply, and raw-material procurement for functional food applications.
