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

Introduction: The preservative effect of the addition of thymol coated with xanthan gum and guar gum on meat quality parameters and sensory acceptability of fried hamburgers during a 21-day storage period was investigated. Materials & Methods: Eight treatments were studied CON (burger without thymol); TYM 0.5% (burger with 0.5% thymol); TYM 1% (burger with 1% thymol); TCX 0.5% (burger with 0.5% thymol coated with 1% xanthan gum); TCG 0.5% (burger with 0.5% thymol coated with 1% guar gum); TCX 1 (burger with 1% thymol coated with 1% xanthan gum); TCG 1 (burger with 1% thymol coated with 1% guar gum); and TCXG (burger with 1% thymol coated with 1% xanthan and guar gums). Results: The control treatment had the highest energy level, while TCG1 had the lowest. The use of thymol resulted in an increase (P<0.05) in the moisture content, particularly when the thymol was coated with xanthan and guar gums. The most significant (P<0.05) reduction in cooking loss and fat absorption was observed with TCXG treatment. The treatment groups showed an increase in ash levels compared to the control treatment. The protein content of the group treated with thymol was lower than the control. The carbohydrate content of the samples increased with TCXG compared to the control treatment. Odor, color, texture and general acceptability scores (P) were higher in the TCXG and TCG1 treatments and lowest in the CON treatment. From the beginning of the display (day 1) to day 21, there was a significant decrease in the scores for odor, color, texture, and overall acceptability. The results showed that coating thymol with xanthan and guar increased the b, a, and l indices compared to the control treatment. Conclusion: The study concluded that thymol can extend the shelf life of processed foods, making it a potential natural alternative to synthetic ingredients. The utilization of thymol, in both uncoated and coated forms, resulted in a significant reduction in the TVN index. The combination of thymol coated with xanthan and guar at a concentration of 1% proved to be the most effective in reducing the levels of bacteria.
