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

High-molecular-weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GSs) form the structural backbone of the wheat gluten network, and their compositional and structural polymorphisms strongly shape dough rheological properties. As wheat processing becomes increasingly standardized and specialized, the requirements for dough properties, especially strength and extensibility, are becoming more stringent and diverse. This makes it essential to clarify the structure-function and dose-effect relationships between HMW-GS and dough rheological properties. On the basis of current evidence, this review focuses on three main aspects: (1) the contributions of HMW-GS allelic variation to dough strength and extensibility; (2) the molecular mechanisms by which multidimensional structural features of HMW-GSs determine these rheological traits; and (3) the relationships between multidimensional structural polymorphism and dough strength and extensibility. Subunits, such as Ax1, Ax2*, Bx14 + By15, and Bx17 + By18, can synergistically enhance both strength and extensibility, whereas Bx7
