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
Consumers in the United Kingdom (UK) are increasingly choosing plant-based milk alternatives (PBMAs) due to food hypersensitivity, nutritional and sustainability considerations. With the growth of online shopping, comprehension of food product information available via retailer websites is important. This study evaluated allergen and nutrition information and sustainability claims for PBMAs available on three major UK retailers' websites. A review conducted between June and July 2024 collected data on 196 PBMAs from supermarket webpages, including product characteristics (processing method, sweetened/unsweetened), food allergens in the ingredients list, precautionary allergen labelling (PAL), nutrition information, claims (food hypersensitivity, environment, sustainability, nutrition and health), and the presence and type of front of pack nutrition label (FOPNL). Product types (oat, almond, soya, and coconut) and retailers were compared using one-way ANOVA or a non-parametric alternative test. Associations between product data and types/retailers were checked using Chi-square tests. There was a significant association between product types and PAL (
