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 investigated the amino acid, physicochemical and sensory qualities of biscuit made from composite flours of wheat and velvet bean. The incorporation of velvet bean flour significantly increased (p < 0.05) the moisture (1.68-3.09%), ash (0.80-1.80%), crude fibre (1.05-1.40%), protein (6.23-8.10%) and fat (21.17-22.29%) while the carbohydrate content of the biscuits decreased significantly (68.74-63.60%). There were significant differences (p < 0.05) in weight, height and thickness of samples except for break strength. Methionine and lysine decreased significantly (p < 0.05) with the increasing substitution of the velvet bean flour. The biscuit samples containing 95:5 wheat-velvet bean seed flour (TAW) had the highest amino acid content for methionine (4.68 mg/100 g) and lysine (6.69 mg/100 g). The sensory evaluation showed that incorporation of velvet bean flour significantly decreased the sensory quality of the biscuit. Apart from the biscuit with 100% wheat (MAW), the biscuit containing 95:5; wheat: velvet bean flour (TAW) was the most liked with a score of 8.00. This study has shown that velvet bean flour incorporation in wheat flour can improve the nutritional quality of biscuits but negatively affect the sensory attributes. This research indicates that up to 25% inclusion of velvet bean is possible in producing biscuits with comparable sensory qualities to regular biscuits made with 100% wheat.
