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

This study examined the impact of varying skipjack tuna fish protein (FP) concentrations on the structural and functional properties of soy protein (SP)-based gels produced via two-screw extrusion. Scanning electron microscopy showed that gels with ≤10 % FP had compact structures, while ≥20 % FP caused voids, cracks, and phase separation. Fluorescence spectroscopy indicated disrupted protein conformation with increasing FP. X-ray diffraction revealed enhanced semi-crystalline structures, while textural analysis showed reduced hardness and chewiness but consistent springiness with higher FP. Gels with FP improved gelation behavior and thermal stability, with SP@20 %FP demonstrating optimal thermal resistance. Rheological analysis showed higher FP improved gel strength but weakened structural integrity beyond 20 %. Short-chain fatty acids analysis indicated increased acetate and propionate levels with FP, enhancing fermentation potential. Microbial diversity decreased with increasing FP, favoring fermentative bacteria. Moderate FP addition optimized gel properties, but excessive FP weakened structure and altered microbial dynamics, emphasizing balanced FP usage.
