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.
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
Ultrasound-assisted xylose glycation is found to be an effective method to improve the gel properties, functional properties and structural characteristics of meat proteins, and to some extent minimize the generation of protein cross-linking. The effects of dual-frequency ultrasound-assisted (20/25, 20/28, 25/28, 20/40, 25/40, 28/40, 28/68, and 40/68 kHz) xylose glycation on beef myofibrillar proteins (MPs) were evaluated in the study. Compared with the control, dual-frequency ultrasound promoted glycation in a frequency-dependent manner. The highest grafting degree was observed at 20/25 and 25/40 kHz, reaching 37.05% and 38.47%, respectively. For gel-type applications, 25/28 kHz ultrasound provided the most balanced performance. It reduced cooking loss from 79.80% to 73.77%, increased hardness from 1388.18 to 1743.38 g, and increased chewiness from 673.03 to 939.84 g. This treatment also showed favorable emulsifying behavior. The strongest LAL inhibition occurred at 25/40 kHz, where LAL decreased from 7961.24 to 4868.88 mg/kg, corresponding to a 38.8% reduction. Structural analyses indicated that ultrasound-assisted glycation induced MP unfolding, thiol exposure, hydrophobic rearrangement, and oxidative modification to different extents. Overall, 25/28 kHz may be more suitable when balanced gel quality, emulsifying performance, and safety control are required. In contrast, 25/40 kHz may be preferred when LAL reduction is the primary objective.
