Influence of Extraction Methods on Polyphenol Profile and Antiradical Activity of Hops.

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
Hop polyphenols contribute to beer stability and possess a wide range of biological activities; however, information on how extraction conditions influence their recovery and antioxidant potential remains limited. This study aimed to compare hot-water extraction, simulating wort boiling, with 80% aqueous acetone extraction as initial sample preparation steps for assessing the polyphenol content and antiradical activity of hops. Sample sets of four Czech hop cultivars from two contrasting harvest years were examined. Group-type polyphenols, total polyphenols, anthocyanogens, flavanoids and UHPLC-HRMS flavonoid profiles were evaluated. Antiradical activity was evaluated by the DPPH assay. Extraction solvent markedly affected both the composition and antiradical properties of hop extracts. Aqueous acetone provided substantially higher yields of anthocyanogens and prenylflavonoids and consistently higher antiradical activity, particularly in cultivars with elevated α-acid content. In contrast, hot-water extracts yielded slightly higher total polyphenols but significantly lower anthocyanogens and reduced antioxidant capacity. Correlation analyses showed that antiradical activity in water extracts was strongly driven by polyphenol levels, whereas in acetone extracts it was influenced by additional constituents, including bitter acids. Extraction solvent critically determines the polyphenolic profile and antioxidant behavior of hop extracts. Aqueous acetone proved more effective for isolating bioactive polyphenol fractions relevant to antiradical performance.
