Apple Waste/By-Products and Microbial Resources to Promote the Design of Added-Value Foods: A Review.
Review in Foods (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Apple fruit is among the most consumed fruits in the world, both in fresh and processed forms (e.g., ready-to-eat fresh slices, juice, jam, cider, and dried slices). During apple consumption/processing, a significant amount of apple residue is discarded. These residues can also be interesting materials to exploit, particularly for direct valorization in the design of added-value foods. In fact, apple waste/by-products are rich in essential components, including sugars, proteins, dietary fibers, and phenolic compounds, as they comprise apple peels, seeds, and pulp (solid residue of juice production). In this sense, the current review paper presents an overview of the nutritional composition of apple waste/by-products, and mainly apple pomace, highlighting their application in producing value-added products through microbial biotechnology. If appropriately managed, apple by-products can generate a variety of useful compounds required in food (as well as in feed, pharmaceutics, and bioenergy). Recent strategies for the synergic use of apple waste/by-products and microbial resources such as lactic acid bacteria and yeasts are discussed. This review contributes to defining a reference framework for valorizing apple waste/by-products from a circular economy perspective through the application of bioprocesses (e.g., fermentation), mainly oriented towards designing foods with improved quality attributes.
