Scientific Opinion on a continuous multiple-step catalytic hydro-treatment for the processing of rendered animal fat (Category 1).

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
An alternative method for the treatment of rendered animal fat (Category 1) intended for the production of renewable fuels by a continuous multi-step catalytic hydro-treatment process was assessed. The alternative method is based on a pre-treatment by degumming and bleaching followed by a hydro-treatment comprising three main processes: catalytic hydro-treatment, stripping and isomerisation. The minimum processing conditions are pressure 30 bar, temperature 265°C and retention time 20 minutes. Based on the outcome of previous EFSA Opinions and the expert evaluation, the BIOHAZ Panel considered that a reduction of six log
