Protein hydrolysates from fish wastes: nutritional characteristics and its inclusion in diets for Octopus maya.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The utilization of fish waste protein as an alternative to crab and squid protein presents an important alternative for octopus fattening. During this study, nutritional characteristics of fish protein hydrolysate (FPH) and its inclusion in prepared diets were evaluated on growth performance and enzyme activity of digestive gland of O. maya juveniles. FPH were prepared using fish waste and their nutritional properties were evaluated. Four diets with different levels of FPH (0%, 10%, 15%, and 20%) in substitution for crab meals were fed to octopuses (mean body weight 100 mg) individually distributed for 70 days. Regarding yield, at the end of the hydrolysis period (day 15) the FPH fraction constitutes 67% of the total silage (dried powder). Small peptides were recorded in FPH (< 2.12 DA). Altogether, 17 amino acids were identified on FPH, encompassing nine essential amino acids (EAAs; 182 mg g-1) and eight non-essential amino acids (NEAAs; 427 mg g-1). Also, the free amino acids (FAAs) content was 8.3% of the total amino acids content with the predominance of taurine. Octopuses fed with FPH15 had the highest weight gain (3.06 g), SGR (4.76% day-1), and survival (90%) compared to FPH0. Total alkaline protease activity of octopuses digestive gland was lower in FPH20 (3550 U mg of protein-1) than in the control (5277 U mg of protein-1). Incorporating protein hydrolysate derived from fish waste into prepared diet may offer unique advantages in promoting optimal growth and general physiological well-being for O. maya.
