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

Hair burning unhairing and dampening of tannery wastes during the hair-saving unhairing process are becoming significant problems in the tanning industry. Therefore, this research article focuses on the extraction of keratin hydrolysate (KH) and its application as a chrome exhaust aid and keratin filler in leather manufacturing process. The structure, morphology and functional groups of the extract were examined using X-Ray Diffractometer (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR), respectively. To study and contrast the degree of improvement in chromium uptake, the KH solution was applied both before tanning on the pickled pelt and after tanning during basification. The thermal stability, physical strength characteristics and organoleptic properties of the leathers obtained were characterized. Furthermore, the environmental impact of the tanning system was assessed through a comparative analysis of the spent liquors. Finally, experimental retanning process was conducted to replace the commercial protein filler (Celatan F: 50, 75, and 100 %) with KH solution, with concurrent processing of control leather using conventional chrome tanning agent at 6 % dosage of chromium. The FTIR analysis of the extract confirmed the presence of alkyl side chains of amino acids as well as carboxylic, amide, carboxyl group and aldehyde functional groups at 1400-1700 cm
