Article in Frontiers in nutrition, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Quinoa seeds are rich in protein, polyphenols, phytosterols, and flavonoid substances, and excellent amino acid balance that has been revisited recently as a new food material showing potential applied in fitness and disease prevention. Heat treatment is one of the most effective strategies for improving the physiochemical characteristics of a protein. However, research examining the effects of temperature on quinoa albumin (QA) properties is limited. In this study, QA was subjected to thermal treatment (50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, and 121°C). SDS-PAGE revealed that QA is composed of several polypeptides in the 10-40 kDa range. Amino acid (AA) analysis showed that the branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), negatively charged amino acid residues (NCAAs), and positively charged amino acids (PCAAs) contents of QA were more than double that of the FAO/WHO reference standard. Additionally, heating induced structural changes, including sulfhydryl-disulfide interchange and the exposure of hydrophobic groups. Scanning electron microscopy demonstrated that the albumin underwent denaturation, dissociation, and aggregation during heating. Moreover, moderate heat treatment (60, 70, and 80°C) remarkably improved the functional properties of QA, enhancing its solubility, water (oil) holding capacity, and emulsification and foaming characteristics. However, heating also reduced the
