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

Wheat gluten proteins (WPs) constitute cross-linked dough due to its physochemical properties. However, its application is limited because of its low solubility. Nutraceuticals' encapsulation inside nanoparticles to improve their bioaccessibility presents some challenges. This study aims to construct WPs-carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) nanoparticles (WCM) by pH cycling, as well as to characterize their physicochemical properties, and assess their applicability as nanocarriers. Alkalization exposed WPs binding sites, allowing co-assembly with CMC by hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions. CMC prevents protein refolding during neutralization. Its fiber network made WCM nanoparticles' structure more orderly with moderately increased crystallinity, favoring their emulsifying function. WCM 2:1 nanoparticles with particle size of 832.40 nm and polydispersity index of 0.38 could be loaded with curcumin, increasing its
