Modern Advances in Velvet Antler Research: From Identification Methods to Pharmacological Mechanisms.
Review in International journal of food science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Velvet antler, a valued traditional medicine of animal origin, contains an abundance of bioactive compounds including amino acids, peptides, proteins, and nucleosides. It exhibits notable health-promoting properties such as wound repair, antioxidant activity, and metabolic regulation, making it a high-quality natural ingredient for functional foods and biopharmaceutical applications. Currently, velvet antler has gained widespread global use as a dietary supplement. Nevertheless, challenges remain in species authentication, mechanistic understanding of active constituents, and quality standardization, which impede the modern development and efficient utilization of this resource. This review summarizes recent advances in identification techniques for velvet antler-encompassing traditional, chemical, and molecular methods-analyzes its chemical composition and influencing factors, and explores the potential mechanisms behind its various pharmacological effects. Furthermore, key issues concerning safety evaluation, quality control standardization, and industry regulation are critically discussed. The findings provide a solid theoretical basis for improving the quality consistency and application reliability of velvet antler products, with the aim of promoting the scientific development and global industrialization of velvet antler resources in food science and biomedicine.
