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

As demand for plant-based bakery products rises, suitable egg substitutes are needed to preserve product quality. This study evaluated the functional, nutritional, and sensory effects of plant-based egg substitutes in vegan muffins, focusing on texture, rheology, nutrition, antioxidants, amino acids, and storage. To address this, muffins were prepared by replacing eggs with chickpea aquafaba, chia gel, flaxseed gel, psyllium husk, ripe banana, and soapwort extract, and each formulation was systematically characterized. Rheological analysis showed that banana and chia gel improved viscoelastic behavior, while soapwort enhanced foaming capacity. Hardness varied between 1266.15 gf in soapwort muffins and 2735.73 gf in chia muffins (
