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

This study has investigated the characteristics of dry noodles made with Korean domestic wheat flours using enzyme treatment for reducing water absorption to improve noodle-making performance. The water solvent retention capacity (SRC) values of flour treated with α-amylase and xylanase significantly decreased with increasing enzyme concentrations up to 0.025% (flour weight basis), which confirmed the enzyme effect on reducing the water absorption capacity of damaged starches and arabinoxylans. Enzyme-treated cooked noodles showed changes in textural characteristics, depended on the enzyme type, water amount, and drying method. Applying α-amylase for reducing the water absorption capacity of flour could mitigate the issue of inferior dry-noodle-making performance. Sensory evaluation showed improved preference attributes of cooked noodles with α-amylase treatment. In conclusion, the α-amylase application could improve the quality of dry-noodle made of Korean domestic wheat flour by diminishing the undesirable effect of damaged starch in flour related to noodle quality.
