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

Background: Composite yeast culture (CYC) serves as an important functional feed additive. The content of its active ingredient, α-mannan, directly affects product quality and efficacy. However, due to the complex matrix of CYC, establishing a highly specific and accurate quantitative method for α-mannan remains a challenge. Methods: This study aimes to establish an analytical method based on enzymatic hydrolysis combined with high-performance liquid chromatography equipped with an ultraviolet detector (HPLC-UV) for the quantification of α-mannan in CYC. The method involved the specific enzymatic hydrolysis of α-mannan in the sample using α-mannosidase, followed by the release of mannose, which was then derivatized with 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone (PMP) and analyzed by HPLC-UV. The actual content of α-mannan was calculated using a formula. Results: Method validation results showed that mannose exhibited good linearity within the concentration range of 0.5-400 μg/mL, with a correlation coefficient of 0.99998. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were 0.063 mg/L and 0.208 mg/L, respectively. The average recovery rate was 88.020%-94.204%, with a relative standard deviation (RSD) ranging from 0.702% to 2.259%, indicating that the method has high accuracy and good precision. Conclusion: This study successfully established an efficient and reliable HPLC-UV detection method suitable for the specific quantitative analysis of α-mannan in CYC. The method exhibited good reproducibility and operational feasibility, providing robust technical support for quality control of CYC products and related functional component research.
