Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Water Lentil (Duckweed): An Emerging Source of Proteins for the Production of Antihypertensive Fractions.

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
Water lentil (Duckweed), an emerging protein source, is a small floating aquatic plant with agronomic and compositional characteristics rendering it a potential source of bioactive peptides. However, enzymatic hydrolysis of duckweeds has only been carried out to assess the antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of the hydrolysates. The main objectives of this study were to perform enzymatic hydrolysis of duckweed powder utilizing several enzymes and to evaluate the final antihypertensive activity of the fractions. Duckweed powder was efficiently hydrolyzed by pepsin, chymotrypsin, papain and trypsin, with degree of hydrolysis ranging from 3% to 9%, even without prior extraction and concentration of proteins. A total of 485 peptide sequences were identified in the hydrolysates and only 51 were common to two or three hydrolysates. It appeared that phenolic compounds were released through enzymatic hydrolyses and primarily found in the supernatants after centrifugation at concentrations up to 11 mg gallic acid/g sample. The chymotryptic final hydrolysate, the chymotryptic supernatant and the papain supernatant increased the ACE inhibitory activity by more than 6- to 8-folds, resulting in IC
