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
Pomegranate arils rapidly experience quality deterioration and a decline in bioactive compounds during storage. This study aimed to develop and optimize an effective non-thermal technology by evaluating the efficacy of ultrasound treatment in preserving the biochemical and physicochemical attributes of pomegranate arils using response surface methodology (RSM). The effects of ultrasound time (4-14 min) and storage duration (0-16 days) on key quality indicators, including total phenol content (TPC), antioxidant activity (AOA), total anthocyanin content (TAC), titratable acidity (TA), and weight loss (WL), were assessed. Results indicated that controlled increases in ultrasound exposure helped maintain bioactive compounds, whereas quality loss was primarily dependent on storage duration. The optimal conditions were determined as 12.3 min of ultrasound and 7.1 days of storage, under which AOA of 71.58%, TA of 2.3%, TAC of 155.16 mg 100 g
