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

Astaxanthin-rich maize has been developed through genetic modification as a potential dietary source of astaxanthin. This study aimed to evaluate the nutritional components and the antioxidant effects of astaxanthin-rich maize. The antioxidant effects were assessed from a 60-day feeding experiment with 9-month-old male SD rats. The results showed that the content of astaxanthin in astaxanthin-rich maize was 24.91 μg/g. Compared with rats fed conventional feed or parental maize, those fed astaxanthin-rich maize showed higher serum superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione (GSH) (
