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

Surimi-based products are widely consumed due to their huge nutritional values. Especially towards global aging, specific demographics (e.g. the elderly and hypertension patients) have increasingly diverse demands for surimi-based products in terms of texture and nutrition. The gelation properties fundamentally determine the quality attributes of these products. Conventional water-bath heating used to produce surimi-based products relies on conductive heating, which faces inherent limitations in precise temperature control and energy efficiency. To further improve the gelation properties, emerging physical field technologies offer promising alternatives. However, there are few reviews that systematically elucidate and compare the mechanism behind the enhanced surimi gelation properties under different physical field technologies, and further explore how these technologies can be precisely modulated to meet the personalized needs of special demographics. Based on surimi gelation process and principles of physical field technologies, this study systematically elucidated the regulatory mechanisms of these technologies from a molecular perspective, focusing on myosin behavior, transglutaminase activity, and protease inhibition. Subsequently, it further explored how this precise controllability can be harnessed to develop function-specific surimi-based products tailored to distinct consumer groups. The present work showed that physical field technologies enhanced surimi gelation by promoting myosin dispersion/unfolding, strengthening hydrophobic interactions and disulfide bonds, activating transglutaminase, and inhibiting proteases. More importantly, their controllable energy delivery provided a unique platform for creating customized surimi products. Future research should focus on multi-physical field coupling, intelligence processing, and personalized surimi-based foods for specific demographics, thereby advancing the industry toward precision nutrition and sustainable manufacturing.
