1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Aging is closely linked to oxidative stress and inflammation. This review provides a critical overview of the antioxidant compounds present in apple pomace and explores how they may mitigate age-related oxidative damage and inflammatory responses. We focus on the nutritional profile of apple pomace including its macro- and micronutrients, with particular focus on polyphenols, such as procyanidin tannins, quercetin glycosides (rutin, quercetin-3-glucoside), phloridzin, dietary fiber, vitamins, and lipids alongside current techniques for isolating its bioactive components. Special attention is given to biological pathways through which these compounds influence aging: redox regulation via Nrf2, inflammatory modulation via NF-κB, and metabolic regulation via AMPK, SIRT1 and PI3K/Akt/mTOR. Evidence from in vitro cellular models (HepG2, CCD-986Sk fibroblasts), in vivo rodent studies and limited human pilot trials is summarized, as well as existing and emerging applications of apple pomace in functional foods, cosmeceuticals, and other sectors. Finally, we discuss the challenges and future opportunities in harnessing this by-product of the food industry. Although clinical data remain limited, preclinical findings support the repurposing of apple pomace as a sustainable functional ingredient contributing to healthier aging and circular economy goals. Future long-term randomized controlled trials are necessary to confirm efficacy in humans.
