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

Cashew nut production and fruit processing generate significant by-products, particularly cashew apple and cashew apple pomace (CAP), which are often treated as waste. However, CAP is a valuable source of nutrients and bioactive compounds that can be repurposed to develop functional food products. Valorizing this by-product represents a pivotal advancement toward achieving sustainability and circularity in the food industry. This review aimed to highlight the chemical composition and potential applications of CAP in functional food development. The review shows that CAP is enriched with bioactive compounds, including phenolic acids, carotenoids, and flavonoids, alongside essential nutrients such as fiber, minerals, carbohydrates, and proteins. The incorporation of CAP into food products may confer a myriad of health benefits, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, antidiabetic, antiobesity, and gastroprotective properties. This review elucidates approaches to effectively integrate CAP into food formulations while preserving their sensory attributes. Utilizing CAP in food products can significantly reduce food waste and enhance the overall nutritional and functional profile of food, contributing to a more sustainable and circular food system.
