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

Kafirin is a protein from sorghum grain or its high-protein byproducts, including dried distillers' grain with solubles (DDGS) from bioethanol production. This highly hydrophobic and slowly digestible protein has demonstrated self-assembly properties, indicating its high potential for the manufacture of microparticles. In this study, DDGS kafirin microparticles were prepared using ionic gelation vibrational jet flow technology (IGVJFT). The effects of nozzle diameter (µm), integrated electrode voltage (V), internal frequency/vibration (Hz), gelation solution concentration (CaCl
