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

Since worldwide demand for cocoa is predicted to exceed supply in the upcoming years, this study aimed to find a substitute for cocoa powder in dark chocolate formulation. In the first phase, Coriander cake, a by-product of extracting oil from coriander seeds, was roasted at 165 °C respectively for 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 min, and physicochemical characteristics (pH, aw, and color parameters), compositional properties, and total phenolic content were examined and compared to cocoa powder. Coriander cake roasted for 6 min was almost equal to cocoa powder and qualified for use in dark chocolate formulation. In the second phase, roasted coriander cake (RCC) was used as a partial replacement for sugar and cocoa powder. The physicochemical and rheological characteristics of RCC chocolates were evaluated. Appropriate mathematical models defined by using best-fitting analysis described results. According to the results, the fitted models illustrated a desirable coefficient of determination (≥90 %).The optimization of the variables indicated that using RCC 6.08 g, Sugar 14.68 g, and Cocoa 12.23 g produced the optimized RCC chocolate with the highest desirability while maintaining the quality characteristics without undesirable changes. The samples' flow behavior and physicochemical properties showed that RCC could be used as a cocoa substitute.
