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 paper reviews recent advances in fresh-cut fruit and vegetable preservation from the perspective of biomacromolecule-based edible coating. Biomaterials include proteins, polysaccharides, and their complexes. Compared to a single material, the better preservation effect was presented by complexes. The functional ingredients applied in the edible coating are essential oils/other plant extracts, metals/metal oxides, and organic acids, the purposes of the addition of which are the improvement of antioxidant and antimicrobial activities and/or the mechanical properties of the coating. The application of edible coating with other preservation technologies is an emerging method, mainly including pulsed light, short-wave ultraviolet, modified atmosphere packaging, ozonation, and γ-irradiation. In the future, it is crucial to design coating formulations based on preservation goals and sensory characteristics. The combination of non-thermal preservation technology and edible coating needs to be strengthened in research on food preservation. The application of AI tools for edible coating-based preservation should also be focused on. In conclusion, edible coating-based preservation is promising for the development of fresh-cut fruits and vegetables.
