Cellulase-Xylanase-Treated Guava Purée by-Products as Prebiotics Ingredients in Yogurt.
Article in Plant foods for human nutrition (Dordrecht, Netherlands), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Fruit processing by-products may be re-utilized as prebiotic ingredients to minimize the environmental impact of solid wastes generated from food industries. This study investigated the effects of enzymatic-induced hydrolysis on two types of guava purée by-products, particularly the prebiotic activity after its inclusion in yogurt-making. Commercial cellulase and xylanase were applied together or separately on refiner (the seed-rich fraction), and decanter (the pulp-rich fraction); labelled as 150 XY (xylanase); 150 CE (cellulase), 150 CX (combined cellulase-xylanase), and CT (control, untreated). The hydrolysis extents followed the order of 150 XY < 150 CE < 150CX. The ethanolic extracts (EEC) of the treated samples were analyzed on selected sugar content and the prebiotic activity score. Rhamnose and xylose were the main sugar constituents in both refiner and decanter. A two to four-fold increments of prebiotic activity score were observed on EEC of combined cellulase and xylanase treated decanter and refiner. Incorporating the combined enzymatically treated whole guava by-products into UHT fresh milk containing a yogurt starter culture significantly increased the log CFU/mL up to 77.6%, enhanced hardness, stickiness, and adhesiveness ranging from 22.2 to 86.4%, and decreased pH values. Combined cellulase-xylanase treatment can convert guava purée by-products into potential prebiotic sources for food applications.
