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

Fish oil, a rich source of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), is a vital nutritional component, but considering its susceptibility to oxidation, it could benefit from an effective encapsulation system. This study aims to optimize high-pressure homogenization (HPH) parameters (pressure, number of passes) and wall material composition to maximize the encapsulation efficiency (EE) of fish oil, using different concentrations of maltodextrin with Arabic gum or sodium alginate. Key metrics such as emulsion droplet size, encapsulation efficiency, color, and oxidation in the final freeze-dried product were evaluated. Optimal values were achieved at 60 MPa, resulting in the lowest mean droplet diameter (369.4 ± 3.8 nm) and narrow distribution (0.197 ± 0.011) of the fish oil micelles prepared with a mixture of Tween80 and sodium caseinate as an emulsifier, without significant oxidation after four cycles of homogenization, while 80 MPa led to the highest EE (up to 95.6%), but increased oxidation. The combination of 10%
