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
Health concerns related to saturated fats intake have encouraged efforts to reduce or replace animal fat in meat products. Direct substitution of saturated fats with liquid vegetable oils often compromises texture and processing stability. Emulsion gels (EGs) can structure liquid oils into solid-like fats. Due to its emulsifying capacity, almond protein isolate (API) was combined with κ-carrageenan (KC) to reinforce the gel matrix, and the API/KC EGs remain unexplored as pork fat replacers in meat products. EGs (6% w/v API, 20% v/v sunflower oil, 0-6% w/v KC) were prepared and characterized. The 6% KC group (AEG6) showed a dense microstructure, enhanced gel strength, improved thermal stability and oil-binding capacity, and the highest viscoelasticity. Replacing 50% pork fat with AEG6 maintained instrumental texture and sensory scores were comparable to conventional frankfurters. Overall, API/KC EGs effectively replace pork fat in low-fat frankfurters, owing to the emulsifying role of API.
