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

Astaxanthin (AXT) demonstrates significant potential in food applications due to its diverse biological activities. However, its practical implementation is constrained by poor water solubility, environmental instability, and low bioavailability. This study aimed to leverage Pickering emulsions stabilized by heat-denatured egg white protein (EWP)-EGCG complexes as carriers for AXT encapsulation, and exploring the system's feasibility in 3D food printing. The results revealed that EWP and EGCG formed complexes through electrostatic and hydrogen bonding interactions. The emulsions exhibited exceptional stability, favorable viscoelasticity and thixotropic recovery.
