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

Strawberries are highly perishable fruits susceptible to rapid postharvest deterioration. This study investigated the efficacy of EU@Ag-MOF/PLA composite films for postharvest strawberry preservation. The 3EU@Ag-MOF/PLA formulation demonstrated optimal performance in maintaining physicochemical properties, reducing reactive oxygen species accumulation, and enhancing antioxidant enzyme activities. Notably, this composite film suppressed hydrogen peroxide, superoxide anion, and malondialdehyde content by 28.44 %, 37.33 %, and 29.91 %, respectively, compared to control packaging after 10 days. Pathogen challenge studies with Botrytis cinerea and Rhizopus stolonifer revealed that this composite effectively balances reactive oxygen species production and scavenging mechanisms during storage. High-throughput sequencing showed that 3EU@Ag-MOF/PLA packaging preserved more balanced microbial community structures and dramatically reduced the relative abundance of pathogenic fungi by day 10. These findings demonstrate that 3EU@Ag-MOF/PLA composite film represent a promising active packaging solution for extending the shelf life of highly perishable fruits by simultaneously addressing fungal proliferation, oxidative stress, and microbial ecology.
