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

Research background: The development of new products based on bacterial cellulose powder derived from tropical fruit byproducts (pulp and peels) represents a technological alternative that offers environmental benefits to everyone. This solution can be applied in both industrial and domestic settings. In this research, bacterial cellulose was produced by fermentation of industrial waste from tropical fruits. Experimental approach: Bacterial cellulose powders were produced Results and conclusions: The powders had pH values from 2.5 to 4.5. Acerola bacterial cellulose showed the highest yield (6.25 %) and the highest vitamin C mass fraction ((1998±51) mg/100 g). Pseudoplastic behavior was observed in all smoothies, and the formulation containing bacterial cellulose from passion fruit showed the highest viscosity among the evaluated samples. Zebrafish tests did not indicate any adverse effects related to the formulations. Novelty and scientific contribution: The use of bacterial cellulose powders from agro-industrial waste could be a healthy and sustainable alternative for the development of new products with a high vitamin C content (acerola bacterial cellulose powder) or more viscous products (passion fruit bacterial cellulose powder).
