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

The valorization of agricultural by-products into high-value ingredients requires efficient and green extraction technologies. Ultrasonic-assisted extraction (UAE) has emerged as a promising technique for this purpose due to its efficiency and environmental benefits. In this study, an integrated green process was developed for recovering bioactive polyphenols from peony (Paeonia ostii) pods (PPP), an underutilized by-product, using combined UAE and macroporous resin purification. The ultrasonication process was systematically optimized via response surface methodology. The determined optimal conditions (46 % ethanol, 14 mL/g liquid-solid ratio, 60 min ultrasonication) achieved a yield of PPP of 52.17 ± 0.06 mg GAE/g DW. Subsequent purification employing D101 macroporous resin and 40 % ethanol elution produced a refined polyphenol fraction, PPP40, with a purity of 43.93 %. Untargeted metabolomic profiling revealed 17 major phenolic constituents in PPP40, including gallic acid, kaempferol 7-O-glucoside, isorhamnetin-3-glucoside-4'-glucoside, and ethyl gallate as predominant compounds. The functional efficacy of the purified PPP40 fraction was evaluated based on its α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. PPP40 exhibited potent inhibition, with an IC
