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

The growing demand for alternative food packaging materials has gained significant attention, driven by both European and global policies aimed at promoting a more sustainable food system. In the present work, more sustainable packaging materials were compared to a conventional system (tray in PET/EVOH/PE with lid in PET/EVOH/PE) to preserve pre-cut cooked ham and mortadella packaged under a modified atmosphere during storage. The alternative systems included a tray in PET/R-PET/PET with a BOPET lid (System 2) or a lid in PET-AlOx/PET (System 3) and a tray in BIOPET/R-PET/PET with a BIOPET lid (System 4). The results revealed that the packaging systems, storage time (performed at 4°C), and light/dark conditions significantly affected the physicochemical properties and microbiological stability of both processed meat products. In particular, cooked ham stored in System 1 exhibited the best color retention, with a* and b* color coordinates slightly degrading over time. Mortadella samples, on the contrary, appeared less affected by discoloration phenomena, with System 2 under light conditions performing the worst in preserving the product. a
