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

In the food industry, innovative packaging solutions are increasingly important for reducing food waste and contributing to global sustainability efforts. However, current food packaging is generally passive and unable to adapt to changes in the food environment in real time. To address this, a battery-less and autonomous smart packaging system is developed that wirelessly powers closed-loop sensing and release of active compounds. This system integrates a gas sensor for real-time food monitoring, a Near-Field Communication (NFC) antenna, and a controlled release of active compounds to prevent quality deterioration in the complex food environment. The ability of the developed smart packaging system is demonstrated, to continuously monitor the freshness of fish products and to trigger the release of active compounds when the food starts to spoil. The system is able to extend the shelf-life of the food product up to 14 days, due to the controlled release of antioxidant and antibacterial compounds. The system can pave the way toward an Internet of Things solution that addresses protection, active prevention of food spoilage, and sustainability, facing all the current challenges of the food packaging industry.
