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.

Abstract
High oil content in breaded fried small yellow croaker (BFYC) was reduced using composite batter gels consisting of tapioca starch, wheat flour, and different concentrations of cassia gum (CG; 0%, 0.2%, 0.4%, 0.6%, 0.8%, 1%). The effects of CG on the oil absorption capacity of BFYC and potential mechanisms were investigated. Dynamic rheological analysis revealed that CG addition could enhance the viscoelasticity of the batter by increasing its storage modulus and loss modulus. Furthermore, FTIR and X-ray diffraction results demonstrated that CG interacts with starch through noncovalent interactions, increasing the relative crystallinity from 9.29% to 16.49%, which promoted the formation of a gel layer. This structural improvement effectively inhibited oil absorption. Differential scanning calorimetry analysis showed that within the 0-0.8% CG range, the batter's denaturation temperature increased from 78.23 °C to 82.08 °C with higher CG concentrations, indicating prolonged gelatinization and enhanced thermal stability that further reduced oil penetration. Low-field nuclear magnetic resonance analysis revealed that CG increased the proportion of tightly bound and weakly bound water in the batter, thereby improving water retention capacity and reducing moisture loss during frying. Microscopic structural observations and Sudan Red-staining tests confirmed that at 0.8% CG concentration, the crust exhibited the lowest porosity with approximately 40% reduction in surface fat content compared to the control group. In conclusion, CG addition significantly improves batter properties and reduces oil content in fried products, providing theoretical support for the development of low-fat fried foods.
