Biodegradable Active Packaging With Improved Functionality Through PVA, Itaconic Acid, Chitosan, Nanoparticles, and Lemon Peel for Sustainable Solutions.
Article in Food science & nutrition, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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 sustainable and eco-friendly packaging has driven research into developing biodegradable materials with enhanced functionality. This study develops and evaluates biodegradable polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-based films incorporating itaconic acid (IA), chitosan (Ch), lemon peel extract (Lp), and silver nanoparticles (Np's) for active food packaging applications. In a controlled 11-day storage study at 4°C, when used to coat blueberries, these bioactive films showed reduced weight loss by up to 13.3%, maintained visual quality, and exhibited significantly lower microbial loads (***
