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 identified the optimal enzymatic treatment for improving the foaming characteristics of oat globulin, and alkaline protease was found to be the most effective enzyme. The impact of alkaline protease on the foaming properties and structural changes in oat globulin was explored. The results show that the foaming capacity of oat globulin hydrolysates is negatively correlated with surface hydrophobicity and positively correlated with the degree of hydrolysis. The results of circular dichroism (CD) and size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) indicate that hydrolysis generated smaller, disordered peptides. Under equilibrium conditions at a 2% concentration, a reduction of 1.62 mN/m in surface tension and an increase of 3.82 μm in foam film thickness were observed. These peptides reduce surface tension between air and water, forming larger, thicker, and more stable foams. Compared to untreated oat globulin, the foaming capacity of hydrolyzed ones increased by 87.17%. Under comparable conditions, these findings demonstrate that limited hydrolyzed oat globulin exhibits potential as an effective plant-based foaming agent up to a degree of hydrolysis of 15.06%.
