Industrial Applications, Principal Sources, and Extraction of Galactomannans: A Review.
Review in Foods (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Galactomannans (GMs) are polysaccharides with diverse industrial applications due to their functional properties, such as their use in thickeners, stabilizers, and gelling agents. Their use originated in the food industry and has rapidly expanded to other industries due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, non-toxicity, and low cost. Galactomannans can be extracted from different plant species, resulting in gums with diverse physicochemical properties. Furthermore, there are different methods for their extraction and purification, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. The structure of galactomannans determines their application in industry, so their characterization is also important. This article presents a comprehensive review of galactomannan sources, as well as their extraction, purification, and characterization methods. It also includes the main applications of these polysaccharides in various sectors.
