Bifidobacteria Encapsulation and Viability of Probiotic Culture during Oral Delivery in a Milk Drink Matrix.
Article in International journal of food science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The use of an alginate hydrogel exclusively for the immobilization of bifidobacteria during oral delivery led to a decrease in the total number of bifidobacteria to 4.0 lg CFU/ml in pH gradients in models of the stomach and intestines, which required clarification of the composition of the protective coating. The introduction of resistant starch into the composition of the microcapsule contributed to the preservation of the viability of immobilized bifidobacteria up to 87% of the initial concentration when passing through the model environment simulating the human digestion system. The introduction of sodium carboxymethylcellulose into the composition of the hydrogel contributed to the regulation of the degradation of the polymer matrix and the controlled release of bifidobacteria. The use of sodium carboxymethylcellulose 0.5% in the formation of a polymer microcapsule provided the maximum encapsulation efficiency of 93.2% and the maximum decay rate of bacteria-loaded microcapsules of 95.7%. The modified alginate matrix contributes to maintaining the level of viable cells of probiotic microorganisms (
