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

This study investigated the centesimal composition, physicochemical properties, bioactive compounds, antimicrobial activity, and anti-quorum sensing (QS) potential of red pulp (RP; Hylocereus polyrhizus) and white pulp (WP; Hylocereus undulatus) pitayas. Both pulps exhibited high moisture content and low protein levels, with ash contents of 0.78% (RP) and 0.70% (WP), titratable acidity of 0.26% for both, and pH values of 5.75 (RP) and 5.12 (WP). RP pitaya presented a higher total phenolic content and contained 3.15 mg/100 g of betalains. Antioxidant capacity differed according to the assay employed: RP showed higher activity in the ABTS•
