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

Bovine lactoferrin (bLF) is a multifunctional protein widely used in food industries. Most bLF products are delivered in a powder form; however, their stability remains unclear. Herein, freeze-dried bLF powders were stored at 4 °C and 40 % relative humidity (RH) for 9 years since 2016. After the long-term storage, their functional properties, including antibacterial ability, antioxidant ability and iron-binding ability, were determined and compared with those of eight commercial LF powders. The bLF powder stored for 9 years demonstrated comparable physicochemical and functional properties with those of commercial LF powders (e.g. >93 % water solubility, >100 mg/100 g iron-binding ability, and >1.7 logCFU/mL bacterial growth reduction against
