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

RESEARCH

backgroundPolysaccharides isolated from plants, fungi and bacteria are associated with immunomodulatory effects. Chickpea hull, which is regarded as food industrial waste, contains considerable amount of antioxidants and bioactive compounds. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: In the present study, we investigated the immunomodulatory activity of polysaccharides from kabuli chickpea ( RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: In NOVELTY AND SCIENTIFIC CONTRIBUTION: The results suggest that chickpea hull polysaccharides enhanced the immune activity and could be developed as the ingredient of functional foods.
