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

Meat quality degradation induced by highland transport emphasises the importance of efficient thawing for Tibetan pork quality. The objective of this study was to examine the impact of various thawing methods on the quality characteristics, protein oxidation, and nutrient composition of Tibetan pork. Ultrasound synergized saline thawing (UST) significantly enhanced tenderness and reduced the oxidation degree of myofibrillar protein, improving the Tibetan pork quality. Compared to ultrasound thawing (UT) and saline thawing (ST), UST not only minimized cooking loss (18.44 %) but also restrained the conversion of bound water and fixed water into free water. Furthermore, the unfolding and depolymerization of MP increased surface hydrophobicity (47.96 a.u) and active sulfhydryl content, which stabilized the secondary and tertiary structure of MP. UST also effectively inhibited the decomposition of amino acid metabolites, lipid oxidation, the synthesis of unsaturated fatty acids, and the degradation of free amino acids during thawing. In conclusion, UST accelerated the thawing process while delaying the oxidation of fats and proteins, thus better maintaining the overall quality of Tibetan pork.
