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

Whey is a byproduct of dairy production that possesses high nutritional value and versatile applications across various industries. In the framework of circular economy, the reutilization of whey is essential to transform this high-volume byproduct into a valuable resource. In this narrative review, the authors focus on trends in the utilization of whey for manufacturing functional and nutritional beverages. This publication summarizes the current information on whey composition based on various influencing factors and explores the technological processes currently used in whey-based beverage production and analysis, as well as nutritional profiles and properties of whey-based drinks with functional modifiers. Information about whey processing methods, compositional profiles, and whey-based beverages' health benefits along with the author-proposed typology of functional drinks are summarized in tables throughout the paper.
