Chemical composition, metabolomics, and functional potential of Pholiota nameko pre-cooking liquid.
Article in Scientific reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
The liquid generated during the pre-cooking process of Pholiota nameko is frequently considered waste, and its large-scale disposal may pose environmental risks. This study undertook a comparative analysis of the liquid and the fruiting bodies, focusing on their chemical composition, physicochemical properties, and metabolomics. Standard chemical analysis methods were applied to determine the levels of key components (e.g., polysaccharides, proteins, amino acids) and their physicochemical properties. Meanwhile, untargeted metabolomics based on UHPLC-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (UHPLC-ESI-MS/MS) was utilized for systematic metabolite identification and comparison. The results demonstrate that immersing the fruiting bodies in water at 95 °C for 10 min facilitates the transfer of substantial quantities of compounds into the liquid, with approximately 7.99% of polysaccharides, 41.04% of proteins, and 62.96% of polyphenols in the fruiting bodies being transferred. This liquid is abundant in minerals and functional components, exhibits distinctive physicochemical properties, and holds potential as a natural nutritional enhancer, flavor enhancer, and thickener, with pesticide residue levels remaining within safe limits. Metabolomic data revealed that the pre-cooking treatment significantly altered the metabolite profile. Specifically, several compounds were substantially upregulated in the pre-cooking liquid compared to the fruiting bodies: Ethyl isopropyl sulfide (7.96-fold), Vidarabine (7.41-fold), 5-oxoproline (3.92-fold), and Picolinic acid (2.48-fold). These changes are associated with alterations in the metabolism of vitamins, peptides, and nucleic acids. The research establishes a chemical and metabolic basis for the advanced development and application of P. nameko pre-cooking liquid across various sectors, including food, pharmaceuticals, health products, cosmetics, and agricultural fertilizers. This study presents an innovative approach to addressing the environmental discharge challenges associated with this substance.
