Critical Issues Faced by Industries Associated with Food Science and Technology: A Delphi Analysis.
Article in Foods (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
As the foundation of human health, the food system is arguably a cornerstone of society. However, despite the criticality of a safe and productive food value chain there are numerous critical issues faced by industries associated with food science and technology. Using a three round Delphi process, this study identified the most critical issues faced by these industries. Based on input from expert panelists representing industry, policy makers, and academics, a total of 120 critical issues were identified in the first round. Through a consensus-building process in two subsequent rounds, 38 issues were retained. The retained issues were then analyzed using the constant comparative method to identify themes. A total of eight themes emerged from the analysis, including the following (alphabetically): (1) education, training, and workforce development; (2) emerging technologies in food sciences; (3) food safety and public health; (4) fresh produce and raw food operations; (5) microbiome and pathogens; (6) product innovation and development; (7) quality assurance and systems management; and (8) sustainability and climate resilience. These results provide a robust foundation to help guide and inform strategic priorities and actions within the food industry.
