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

This study investigates the impact of substituting lactose with maltodextrin in milk-tea formulations to enhance their physicochemical and structural properties. Various lactose-to-maltodextrin ratios (100:0, 90:10, 85:15, 80:20, 75:25) were evaluated in both post-pasteurized and concentrated skim milk-tea (SM-T) and whole milk-tea (WM-T) formulations. Concentration significantly improved the zeta potential, pH, and browning index in both SM-T and WM-T compared to pasteurization. L:M ratios of 90:10 and 75:25 in WM-T and 90:10 and 80:20 in SM-T showed higher phenolic preservation after concentration due to structural changes resulting from the addition of maltodextrin and water removal during prolonged heating. The preservation effect of phenolic components in both WM-T and SM-T is governed by many mechanisms including pH stabilization, zeta potential modulation, protein interactions, complex formation, and encapsulation effects. Therefore, optimizing milk-tea stability and phenolic preservation through L:M ratio adjustments provides a promising approach for enhancing milk-tea properties.
