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

The choice of antioxidant to be used in the formulation of an oleogel is crucial to determine its oxidative stability and functionality, as these factors can also affect the physical, chemical, and rheological properties of the oleogel. In this study, the effect of two antioxidants (ascorbic acid, AA, and alpha-tocopherol, AT) and their concentration (0.01, 0.02, and 0.03%) on the physical and chemical properties of beeswax and canola oil oleogels were evaluated. The results show that the type and concentration of antioxidants did not affect the thermal properties of the samples, and in FTIR analyses, no noticeable changes in spectra patterns are observed. Rheological analyses showed that the oleogels containing AA exhibited higher elasticity and resistance to deformation. Accelerated oxidative stability tests (storage at 50 °C and the Rancimat test) showed that AA effectively delayed oxidation. The induction time increased by 2.61-fold at higher concentrations, while AT did not significantly affect oxidation resistance. Overall, it was observed that AA improved oleogel firmness and OBC (up to 1.75-fold and 2.8%, respectively), whereas AT resulted in a softer and less stable gel structure. These results show the importance of antioxidant selection, indicating that hydrophilic antioxidants have promising applications in the formulation of beeswax oleogels.
