Development and characterization of flaxseed mucilage and elastin/collagen biofilms.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Flaxseed mucilage (FSM)-based biofilms were prepared with varying compositions of the elastin/collagen (ELN/COL) protein matrix. These biofilms were characterized by using fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The thickness, water solubility, moisture content, transparency, and mechanical properties of biofilms were investigated. The biofilms were observed to be homogeneous and flexible. The addition of 40 % w/w ELN/COL to the FSM biofilms (FSM-ELN/COL biofilms) enhanced the thickness from 0.127 to 0.142 mm, water solubility from 59.30 to 84.60 % and elongation at break from 91.4 to 188.6 %. However, the reductions in the tensile strength from 6.56 to 4.69 MPa and melting point from 140 °C to 134 °C of the biofilms were observed. The transparency value of 40 % w/w FSM-ELN/COL biofilms increased from 5.42 to 7.19 due to the presence of ELN/COL within the FSM matrix that hinders the light transmission passing through the biofilm. FTIR and XRD tests indicated hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions occurred between FSM and ELN/COL, giving rise to a good compatibility of the system. FSM-ELN/COL biofilms fabricated in this work had appropriate mechanical and thermal stability, thus the promising potential to be employed as food packaging and coating.
