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 the impact of soluble solids content (SSC)-based maturity on fruit quality and non-targeted metabolite profiles of cold-stored 'Autumn Sense' hardy kiwifruit. Noticeable alteration of glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid cycle, and the amino acid and fatty acid pathways were observed during vine maturation of fruit. The branched-chain and aromatic amino acids were enriched at early harvest (5.7 % SSC), whereas pyruvate metabolism and unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis were upregulated at late harvest (7.9 % SSC) during cold storage. These metabolic shifts were related to either incomplete ripening in early-harvested fruit or enhanced physiological disorders in late-harvested fruit. Our findings provide the first evidence that SSC-based harvest maturity mediates postharvest hardy kiwifruit quality through specific metabolic pathways. This study suggested that fruit with approximately 7 % SSC exhibited the most balanced metabolic profile and postharvest quality, suggesting this range as a preliminary optimal harvest maturity stage for 'Autumn Sense' hardy kiwifruit.
