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

Turmeric, referred to as "Golden Spice of India," belongs to Zingiberaceae family is cultivated in South-eastern and North-eastern regions of India, where it displays the regional diversity. In this study, turmeric rhizomes of Curcuma longa (yellow turmeric) from the South-eastern India and Curcuma caesia (black turmeric) from North-eastern India were collected. Proteins from these rhizome samples were extracted by using four different pH based buffer systems. The sequentially purified peptide filtrates obtained through ultrafiltration with 10 kDa and 3 kDa cut off membranes were quantified and assessed for their antioxidant potential by FRAP, NOS, DPPH and ABTS assays. The results showed that the highest antioxidant activities were observed in the Phosphate (pH 7.0) and Tris-HCl (pH 8.0) buffers. Further analysis of the 3 kDa filtrates from both turmeric samples by using HPLC confirmed the presence of peptides, which were subsequently identified by MALDI-TOF MS. The peptides identified in this study exhibited the promising bioactive potential based on their sequences and showed the less cleaving potential evaluated by insilico peptideCutter analysis. Future research will focus on validating these activities through comprehensive experimental approaches, including cell-based antioxidant, mechanistic studies, and antimicrobial evaluations. Such investigations will be essential to confirm their biological relevance and to determine its suitability for nutraceutical applications.
