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 efficiency of food irradiation depends on the accuracy of the irradiation dose range that is sufficient for inhibiting microbiological growth without causing an irreversible change to the physical and chemical properties of foods. This study suggests that the concentration of hemoglobin derivatives can be used as a criterion for establishing the limit for chilled beef irradiation at which irradiation-induced oxidation becomes irreversible. The express spectrophotometry method for estimating the hemoglobin derivative concentration shows a nonlinear increase in methemoglobin concentration from 15% to 50% in beef irradiated by accelerated electrons with the doses ranging from 250 Gy to 10,000 Gy. The monitoring of the hemoglobin derivative concentration for three days after irradiation shows nonmonotonous dependencies of methemoglobin concentration in beef in the storage time since the oxidation of hemoglobin occur as a result of irradiation and biochemical processes in beef during storage. The proposed method based on the quantitative analysis of the hemoglobin derivative concentration can be used to estimate the oxidation level for irradiation of foods containing red blood cells. The study proposes a model that describes the change in hemoglobin derivative concentration in beef after irradiation considering that oxidation of hemoglobin can be triggered by the direct ionization caused by accelerated electrons, biochemical processes as a result of bacterial activity, and reactive oxygen species appearing during irradiation and storage. This research throws light on the mechanisms behind food irradiation during storage that should be taken into account for selecting the optimal parameters of irradiation.
