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

The rapid growth of meat analogue products highlights the need to evaluate not only protein content but also protein quality, digestibility and colonic fermentability. Mycoprotein is a protein-rich fungal biomass with a favourable amino acid (AA) profile; however, limited data are available on the nutritional quality of mycoprotein-based meat analogues. This study compared protein digestibility, AA bio-accessibility and colonic fermentability of four mycoprotein-based meat analogues, their corresponding animal-derived meat counterparts, and mycoprotein biomass alone. Food products were subjected to a standardised
