Phytate degradation in composite wheat/cassava/sorghum bread: Effects of phytase-secreting yeasts and addition of yeast extracts.
Article in Food science & nutrition, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Iron deficiency anemia is highly prevalent in developing countries due to the consumption of cereal-based foods rich in phytate that chelates minerals such as iron and zinc making them unavailable for absorption by humans. The aim of the present study was to degrade phytic acid in composite flour (wheat/cassava/sorghum) bread by the addition of phytase-producing yeasts in the baking process to achieve a phytate-to-iron molar ratio <1 and a phytate-to-zinc molar ratio <15, ratios needed to achieve an enhanced absorption by humans. The high-phytase (HP)-producing yeasts were two
