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

To elucidate the under-characterized phytochemical diversity of regionally important citrus germplasm, this study performed a comparative analysis of phenolic profiles and antioxidant activities in seven cultivars from Zhejiang Province, including commercial, locally adapted and emerging varieties. Using UPLC-MS/MS, 17 flavonoids and 11 phenolic acids were quantified in peel and pulp tissues, revealing significant metabolite differentiation among varieties. The hybrid variety Gaocheng (pomelo × orange) displayed a distinct intermediate chemotype. It was characterized by the concurrent accumulation of naringin, and hesperidin. Notably, the peels of Ponkan, Bendizao, Gaocheng, and Miyagawa wase were identified as rich sources of bioactive PMFs. All peel extracts exhibited strong antioxidant activity, with Gaocheng showing the highest comprehensive antioxidant capacity. PCA and HCA revealed that phenolic composition was strongly associated with genetic background, classifying the varieties into three distinct groups. Collectively, these findings provide a foundation for the utilization of citrus by-products, cultivar authentication, and breeding strategies for enhanced bioactivity.
