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

Prolonged storage of frozen dough worsens the structure of thawed dough. The main reason is the inhibition of yeast activity. In this study we investigated applicability of pulsed electric field treatment for introduction of cryoprotectant into yeast cells. We showed that pre-treatment of cells suspended in a trehalose solution improves freezing tolerance and results in higher viability after thawing. Viability increased with rise in electric field strength (from 3 to 4.5 kV/cm) and incubation time (from 0 to 60 min) after exposure. Pretreatment resulted in lower decrease in the viability of thawed cells, viability of untreated cells dropped to 10%, while pre-treatment with PEF and trehalose tripled the viability.
