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

Natural fermentation of persimmon vinegar often results in limited flavor profiles. To address this, a bioaugmentation strategy was employed by co-inoculating two strains of lactic acid bacteria and one aroma-producing yeast. This approach led to progressive increases in the contents of total acid, vitamin C, polypeptide, and polyphenols. Compared to the traditionally fermented control group (TF), the bioaugmented group (BF) exhibited a significant increase of 11.54% in lactic acid content. Additionally, levels of total free amino acids and umami amino acids rose by 18.71% and 27.85%, respectively. HS-SPME-GC-MS analysis showed that the total concentrations of aroma compounds and ester compounds in the BF group increased by 25.19% and 24.42%, respectively. Orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) identified seven key compounds responsible for flavor differentiation. Sensory evaluation and electronic tongue analysis further confirmed that bioaugmentation significantly enhanced umami taste, richness, and overall acceptability of the vinegar.
