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 effects of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) on the conformation of interface-adsorbed protein (IAP) and interface-unadsorbed protein (IUAP) and rheological properties of rice bran protein-soybean protein isolate conjugates emulsions were investigated. The results showed that the viscosity, storage modulus, and loss modulus of conjugates emulsions initially increased, and subsequently declined as EGCG concentration increased (0 %-20 %), and reached the maximum value at an EGCG concentration of 10 %. Meanwhile, the absolute value of ζ-potential (-49.333 mV), average particle size (831.033 nm), and flexibility (0.052) of IAP reached the maximum at 10 % of EGCG. The absolute value of ζ-potential and surface hydrophobicity of IAP were higher than those of IUAP. Overall, moderate concentration of EGCG (10 %) enhanced the adsorption of highly flexible and highly surface-charged IAP at the oil-water interface and promoted the formation of a highly viscoelastic interfacial membrane, which improved the rheological properties of conjugates emulsions.
