Frontiers in 3D printing for biobased food packaging.
Review in Food science and biotechnology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Additive manufacturing (3D printing) offers design flexibility across various industries, including food processing and packaging. With digital controls, it is possible to fabricate 3D structures layer-by-layer. This review highlights the potential of 3D printing for creating bio-based food packaging with innovative functionalities and additionally, provides a brief overview of traditional and recent techniques for developing food packaging. By layering materials, 3D printing enables the production of sustainable, biocompatible packaging, providing an alternative to traditional methods. The review covers key 3D printing methods for biomaterial-based packaging, comparing them with conventional techniques. Extrusion-based printing is identified as the most suitable technology for developing bio-based packaging. Important factors include material properties, process optimization, and market demand. 3D-printed packaging shows improved water vapor barriers, hydrophobicity, and mechanical properties over casted films. As sustainability becomes increasingly critical, the market for bio-based 3D-printed packaging is expected to grow significantly. Graphical abstract:
