Protein-Dependent, pH-Selective Complexation in Tragacanth-Protein Systems: An Integrated FTIR-DLS-Rheology-Docking Study.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Tragacanth gum (GT) was mixed with whey protein concentrate (WPC80), whey protein isolate (WPI) or rice protein (RP) across pH 3.0-7.2 in order to clarify the effect of protein type and pH on controlling association and bulk behavior. Turbidimetry at 600 nm by photographic validation, oscillatory and steady-shear rheology, dynamic light scattering (DLS), FTIR spectroscopy, and AutoDock Vina docking were employed and compared. Whey systems reflected a clear, mildly acidic window: low-strain elasticity (G') reached near pH ~5, with increased A600 and dominant sub-100 nm DLS modes, reflecting associative complexation near the isoelectric region. WPI also reflected a secondary turbidity/viscosity rise at pH 7.2, consistent with segregative aggregationafter the associative window. RP was variable, featuring broadly increased turbidity with viscosity/DLS maxima at pH 6.4, reflecting glutelin-facilitated solubility/aggregation rather than an acid optimum. FTIR changes in the amide band and GT bands (COO
