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

Peanut breeding increasingly emphasizes nutritional enhancement and bioactive potential to support functional food development. This study assessed twenty-eight peanut genotypes for compositional diversity and invitro anticancer and attributes.Principal component analysis revealed 47.78% of the total variation among genotypes, primarily influenced by protein,oleic acid and phenolic content. Significant variation was observed in fatty acid and phenolic profiles revealing genotypes with superior nutritional and antioxidant properties. High phenolics and antioxidant rich genotypes were further analyzed using invitro assay (Resazurin-red) suggesting possible anticancer effects. LC/MS profiling identified 11 phenolic compounds such as p-coumaric acid and quercetin, associated with antioxidant and chemopreventive effects. Extract from the most bioactive genotypes effectively reduced colon cancer cell viability, suggesting possible anticancer potential. All the genotypes have maintained aflatoxin levels below safety thresholds, confirming their suitability for food use. Overall the findings highlight the potential of nutritionally enhanced peanut germplasm for developing dual purpose varieties with improved health and dietary benefits. These results provide a valuable foundation for breeding programs targeting functional and chemopreventive peanut cultivars. However, further in vivo validation of phenolic-driven anticancer mechanisms is warranted to advance functional peanut varieties.
