Interactions with Locust Bean Gum Regulate the Gelling Capacity of Myofibrillar Protein Emulsion: Effects of Locust Bean Gum Concentration.
Article in Foods (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Myofibrillar protein (MP) emulsion systems tend to be unstable, leading to loss of water and oil from the emulsion gel. Thus, improvements in MP emulsification ability are needed to enhance the quality of meat products. The effects of different added concentrations of locust bean gum (LBG) (0-5 mg/g) on the emulsion gel performance of bovine MP were studied. LBG can act on myosin to stretch the spatial structure of the protein and thus improve the thermal stability of the emulsion. LBG can enhance the hydrophobicity of the MP emulsion gel molecules, allowing greater combination of the oil phase with protein, optimizing the protein's secondary structure, and promoting greater order and uniformity in the network structure of the MP emulsion gel. LBG imparts better texture characteristics and water retention properties to MP emulsion gels. Compared with a control group, adding 5 mg/g LBG can increase the hardness of an MP emulsion from 23.11 g to 65.91 g, springiness from 0.74 to 0.82, and water holding capacity from 59.45% to 93.24%. This study provides a reference for improving the quality of beef protein-based food emulsion gel.
