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

For consumers and the food industry, monitoring food freshness poses significant challenges. This study successfully developed a smart composite film (PDTS-CEO-Cur) based on high amylose tigernut starch (TNS) to extend beef shelf-life and enable freshness monitoring. After 4 h of debranching TNS with pullulanase, the amylose content reached 48.81 %, and the resulting film's tensile strength doubled. The composite film demonstrated remarkable antibacterial and antioxidant properties by incorporating cinnamon essential oil (CEO) and curcumin (Cur). Specifically, the PDTS-CEO-Cur film exhibited a notably high DPPH scavenging rate of 44.36 % in a fat simulant. It also exhibited potent antibacterial activity, with inhibition zones of 9.24 mm and 10.26 mm against
