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
This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the physicochemical, structural, and functional properties of starches extracted from five distinct banana varieties. The starches were labeled as follows: 'Nan Tian Huang' starch (NS), 'Da jiao' starch (DS), 'Gui jiao' starch (GS), 'Gong jiao' starch (OS), and 'Hong jiao' starch (HS). The results show that all starches have A-type crystalline structures and contain high levels of resistant starch, ranging from 88.3% to 93.5%. The amylose content ranges from 21.97% to 55.46%. The starches isolated from the five banana varieties are predominantly flat, rod-shaped, and spherical. Particle sizes vary significantly, ranging from 19.75 to 28.65 µm, which contributes to differences in their functional properties. For example, DS demonstrates exceptional functional properties, including high RS content, a low glycemic index, and excellent thermal stability. In contrast, HS starch, despite its high amylose content, exhibits higher enzymatic digestibility and lower freeze-thaw stability. Principal component analysis and correlation analysis revealed that amylose content, thermal properties, and particle morphology are key determinants of the physicochemical and digestive properties of banana starch, emphasizing their interdependence. Additionally, notable differences were observed in the gelatinization properties, thermal characteristics, crystallization, and textural parameters. These findings offer valuable insights into the potential applications of banana starch in functional foods and industrial products, highlighting the importance of starch type in optimizing its functionality.
