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

Potato trypsin inhibitor (PTI) is a high-value bioactive protein from potato processing wastewater with potential applications in functional foods and nutraceuticals. This study systematically compared three extraction strategies-acid precipitation-salting out, direct resin adsorption, and zinc ion precipitation-for PTI recovery from simulated potato processing wastewater. Acid precipitation-salting out emerged as the most effective approach, yielding PTI with high purity (63.62% protein), superior specific activity (533.06 TIU/mg), and enhanced structural stability evidenced by high β-sheet content (48.09%), narrow particle size distribution, and elevated zeta potential. The extracted PTI exhibited favorable emulsifying capacity (66.68%), foam stability exceeding 80%, broad pH stability, and moderate resistance to simulated gastrointestinal digestion (73.98% activity retention). In contrast, resin adsorption achieved higher yield but lower purity and functionality, while zinc ion precipitation introduced significant heavy metal residue risks. This work establishes acid precipitation-salting out as a scalable strategy for high-quality PTI extraction and highlights its dual functionality as a bioactive and techno-functional ingredient, supporting sustainable valorization of potato processing waste.
