Cottonseed proteins: A promising and undervalued non-grain protein source for aquafeed.
Review in Animal nutrition (Zhongguo xu mu shou yi xue hui), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 projected expansion of aquaculture production cannot rely solely on fishmeal (FM) due to its unsustainability and increasing price. Therefore, novel FM alternatives with high nutritional value, excellent digestibility, great palatability, low toxicity, and abundance without competing with human food sources is a crucial strategy for promoting sustainable aquaculture. Cottonseed proteins have been identified as valuable non-grain protein sources in aquaculture, with a production history tracing back to the 1950s. In recent years, the advancements in processing equipment and technologies have successfully optimized the production of cottonseed proteins that meet desired attributes of FM alternatives. Cottonseed protein concentrate is a prime example, obtained through low-temperature solvent extraction, de-gossypolization, and moderate raffinose isolation to enhance its nutritional value and palatability. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the research advancements concerning cottonseed proteins in aquafeed, including a detailed examination of their production processes, physicochemical properties, feed processing characteristics, nutritional values, and a meta-analysis on the growth performance of aquatic animals when cottonseed proteins are used as alternatives to fish meal in feed.
