Particle sizing in milk by combined differential dynamic microscopy and cryo-FIB-SEM tomography.
Article in Soft matter, 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
Milk is a suspension with a multimodal size distribution of fat droplets and protein micelles, which most sizing methods do not distinguish. We demonstrate the use of differential dynamic microscopy (DDM) and cryo-FIB-SEM tomography to size both fat globules and casein micelles in homogenised milk without the need for prior physical separation. The two techniques are complimentary: cryo FIB-SEM tomography can directly identify the 2 distinct constituents and reveal their overlapping size distributions. DDM reliably detects a bi-modal size distribution for whole milk samples, providing a fast high-throughput method to estimate volume-averaged mean sizes. Our results highlight that different sizing techniques seldom, if ever, yield the same answer. Instead, they can provide complementary information and further insights not obtainable from using each technique in isolation.
