Key Methodologies in Characterizing the Multi-Scale Structures of Gluten Proteins in Dough: A Comparative Review.
Review in Biomolecules, 2026. 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
Gluten proteins are key components in wheat flour that determine the formation of dough and the quality of flour-based products. Upon hydration and mixing, gluten proteins undergo complex structural transformations to form a gluten network, exhibiting a hierarchical multi-scale structure spanning molecular, aggregate, and network scales. Due to the extreme complexity of gluten proteins, accurately characterizing their multi-scale structures remains challenging, requiring the combined application of multiple techniques, which are still relatively limited and thus warrant further exploration. Therefore, this review presents the principles, operational details, and result presentations of current techniques at different structural scales, including electrophoresis, high-performance liquid chromatography, proteomics, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and Fourier transform Raman spectroscopy at the molecular scale; size-exclusion chromatography, asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation, dynamic light scattering, multi-angle light scattering, differential refractive index, and ultraviolet absorbance at the aggregate scale; and confocal laser scanning microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, confocal Raman microscopy, and two-photon excitation microscopy at the network scale, among others. It further compares the advantages and disadvantages of similar techniques, facilitating their scenario-based selective utilization. Finally, it outlines the ongoing challenges and future perspectives for the development and application of techniques for the multi-scale structural characterization of gluten proteins.
