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

Plant-based food products are becoming increasingly popular among consumers. The chemical composition and the processing of plant-based products presumably fuel the Maillard reaction, but the abundance of Maillard reaction products in plant-based food products is rarely investigated. In this study, the concentration of N-ε-carboxymethyllysine (CML), N-ε-carboxyethyllysine (CEL) and methylglyoxal-hydroimidazolone (MG-H1) was analyzed with UPLC-MS/MS in six plant-based dairy alternatives. Total amounts of free and protein-bound glycation compounds ranged from 0.03 to 0.31 mg/100 g food for CML, 0.04-1.28 mg/100 g food for CEL and 0.69-2.84 mg/100 g food for MG-H1. Free glycation compounds were abundant in yogurt and cheese, but not milk alternatives. During simulated gastrointestinal digestion, CML and MG-H1 were released either as modified amino acid or in peptide-bound form, respectively. CEL was released to a significantly lesser extent in peptide-bound form. For CML, de novo formation of up to 400 % during digestion was observed. The results showed that Maillard reaction products are quantitatively important process-induced compounds in plant-based food products which are available after digestion.
