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

Honey adulteration remains a major challenge for ensuring food authenticity and sustainable quality control. In this study, near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy and hyperspectral imaging (HSI) were comparatively evaluated as green, non-destructive analytical techniques for the discrimination of pure and adulterated honey using chemometric modeling. A total of 180 honey samples, including pure and adulterated samples with agave syrup, sucrose syrup, or water at varying concentrations, were analyzed using two NIR platforms (MicroNIR™ 1700 and NIRS™ DS2500) and an HSI system (Micro-Hyperspec
