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

The objective of this study was to formulate a beverage based on amaranth proteins, stable and nutritious. The process of obtaining the beverage was based on the existing knowledge about starch separation techniques and techno-functional properties of the amaranth proteins. Gums, gellan and xanthan were added to the protein extract and it was heat-treated at 80 °C during 20 min. A beverage with a composition similar to skim cow's milk was obtained (3.42 ± 0.08; 0.60 ± 0.06; 1.9 ± 0.4; 0.43 ± 0.01; 3 and 90.58 ± 0.01% for proteins, lipids, fiber, ashes, carbohydrates and water, respectively). Thermal treatment caused the denaturation and aggregation of the proteins, while the addition of gums induced a decrease in the sensitivity to heat treatment of the proteins. Formation of protein aggregates and gum-protein complexes was characterized by electrophoresis, differential scanning calorimetry, and particle size distribution. Heat treatment and addition of gums generated macrocomplexes with enhanced absolute value of ζ-potential, which contributed to the high colloidal stability of amaranth-based beverage. This beverage is suitable for vegans, celiac patients, and lactose intolerants.
