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

Quality deterioration, characterized by browning and cooked-off flavor (COF) development, often occurs in green tea beverages (GTBs) during shelf life. Changes in sensory quality and physical and chemical properties, as well as COF formation and its alleviation under different storage conditions, were comprehensively investigated in beverages prepared from five green teas and one jasmine-scented green tea. As the storage temperature increased and the storage duration extended, all GTBs exhibited a noticeable decrease in total sensory score (TSS), along with remarkable increases in total color difference (ΔE) and COF. Contents of total polyphenols declined markedly during storage of GTBs, while levels of caffeine and free amino acids changed insignificantly. Among the nine volatiles negatively correlated with TSS and positively correlated with COF, linalool, geraniol, 1-octanol, and 3-methylbutanal were identified as key COF contributors due to their high relative odor activity values. These results indicate that quality deterioration of GTBs during storage is closely associated with polyphenol loss, accumulation of COF-related components, and shifts in volatile composition and ratios. Notably, beverages prepared from jasmine-scented tea exhibited higher sensory scores and slower quality deterioration during storage than those prepared from unscented tea. This study identifies the key volatile contributors to COF and demonstrates that jasmine scenting effectively mitigates quality deterioration, offering a practical strategy for extending the shelf life of GTBs.
