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

Food fortification is an effective strategy to combat vitamin A deficiency. Gari, a cassava-based West African food product, is an interesting product to fortify with vitamin A, but the low stability of vitamin A poses a challenge. We showed that toasted wheat bran can stabilise vitamin A as retinyl palmitate (RP) during storage of RP-fortified gari to a limited extent. After four weeks of accelerated storage, the RP retention of gari with toasted wheat bran was 34 ± 9% whereas this was only 19.4 ± 0.3% for gari without bran. When comparing different fortification strategies, including RP addition, red palm oil addition and the use of yellow cassava, red palm oil addition was shown the most promising strategy. After eight weeks of accelerated storage, the vitamin A retention was more than four times higher for red palm oil-fortified gari (22.6 ± 0.1%) than for the two other fortification strategies.
