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

Modification of starch is a potential basic research aiming to improve its water barrier properties. The general purpose of this study is to manufacture cross-linked iodinated starch citrate (ISC) with a degree of substitution (DS) ≈ 0.1 by modifying native corn starch with citric acid in the presence of iodine as an oxidizing agent. Thermoplastic starch (TPS) was generated with urea as a plasticizer and blended with various concentrations of ISC of (2, 4, 6%) (wt/wt) to obtain (UTPS/ISC
