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

This study examines the effects of edible gelatin films enriched with citrus fruit peel extracts (grapefruit, orange, and lemon) at concentrations of 1%, 2%, and 4% on the quality and shelf life of chicken burgers during frozen storage at - 18 °C, over 147 days. Significantly, the duration of shelf life was increased by inhibiting two factors, microbial and oxidation, in chicken burgers by using enriched gelatin films. On day 147, 4% grapefruit peel extract showed significantly lower peroxide value (4.50 meq O₂/kg), thiobarbituric acid value (0.74 mg MDA/kg), total volatile basic nitrogen (11.20 mg N/100 g), and pH (6.77) than the unwrapped control samples (p ≤ 0.05). Moreover, microbial analysis revealed that 4% citrus fruit peel extracts significantly inhibited the burgers' total aerobic psychrophilic count, total mesophilic bacteria, total coliform bacteria, total lactic acid bacteria, total yeast and mold count compared with the control and other groups. Grapefruit peel exhibited the highest antioxidant and phenolic content, followed by orange and lemon peels. Overall, gelatin films fortified with citrus peel extracts 4% showed improved an-tioxidant and antibacterial capabilities, indicating their potential as natural active packaging materials for meat preservation.
