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

Anthocyanins (ACNs) are natural bioactive pigments with antioxidant properties, but their application in food systems is limited by poor physicochemical stability. This study evaluated black carrot ACNs (BC-ACN; 5-25 mg/L, expressed as cyanidin-3-glucoside equivalents) encapsulated in plant (soy protein isolate, SPI), animal (whey protein isolate, WPI; α-lactalbumin, α-L), and insect (cricket protein, CP) protein matrices. Complexes were prepared by electrostatic precipitation and characterized using encapsulation efficiency, loading capacity, rheology, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, electron microscopy, and zeta potential analyses. WPI exhibited the highest encapsulation efficiency and loading capacity, indicating superior ACN incorporation. SPI formed the most elastic and deformation-resistant networks and exhibited the highest electrostatic stability. α-L showed weaker, predominantly viscous behavior, whereas CP displayed intermediate encapsulation performance and heterogeneous microstructures. These findings demonstrate that protein molecular architecture governs ACN interactions, network formation, and stability, providing guidance for selecting protein carriers for food and nutraceutical applications.
