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

Instant powder, with its high formulation flexibility, ease of quantification, long shelf life, and convenient storage and transportation, holds a significant position in the modern food industry and has experienced rapid development. However, most powder products not optimized for instant use often encounter issues such as surface floating and clumping during rehydration. Some products remain unevenly distributed even after stirring or extending the settling time, severely impacting consumer experience. This paper systematically reviews the key factors influencing the rehydration performance of instant powders, including chemical composition, particle microstructure, and processing techniques. It also delves into corresponding improvement strategies, such as particle structure design, particle modification, and the optimization of rehydration methods. This paper aims to provide theoretical references and practical guidance for technological innovation and product development in the field of instant powders.
