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

Bee pollen is a natural product with multifunctional properties, containing abundant bioactive compounds, especially phenolic acids and flavonoids, which are largely responsible for its antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. In this study, the bioactive composition, antioxidant capacity, encapsulation efficiency, antimicrobial activity, and gastrointestinal stability of bee pollen extract (PE) were investigated. The pollen extract exhibited high total phenolic (2817 mg GAE/100 g) and flavonoid contents (5255 mg QE/100 g), along with strong antioxidant activity (DPPH: 4305 mg TE/100 g; CUPRAC: 3685 mg TE/100 g). To improve the stability and bioaccessibility of phenolic compounds, PE was encapsulated using β-cyclodextrin (BCD) at different weight ratios. Among the formulations, the PE:BCD ratio of 1:2 showed the highest encapsulation efficiency (64%) and favorable physicochemical properties, including higher particle size and more negative zeta potential values, indicating good colloidal stability. Antimicrobial activity was evaluated for PE, BCD-only, and the selected PE-loaded formulation (1:2,
