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

Commercial fishing operations often discard up to half of their raw catch, including scales, shells, frames, viscera, and other less desirable parts. This discarded biomass, coupled with low-value by-catch, poses significant environmental challenges due to its rapid decomposition. However, these materials represent an underutilized source of valuable compounds such as proteins, enzymes, carotenoids, fats, and minerals. This review consolidates recent advances in enzymatic technologies for the sustainable processing of seafood byproducts. It highlights the role of fishery-derived enzymes such as proteases, lipases, chitinases, alkaline phosphatases, transglutaminases, and hyaluronidases in the extraction, modification and valorization of marine biomolecules. Particular attention is given to enzymes from cold-adapted species, which offer high catalytic efficiency at low temperatures, enabling energy-efficient processing while maintaining product quality. The review identifies outstanding research gaps, including large-scale enzyme stabilization, recovery efficiency, and integration of biocatalytic systems with green extraction technologies. By summarizing these innovations and challenges, this work provides a framework for developing sustainable, enzyme-driven seafood waste valorization strategies that align with circular bioeconomy principles.
