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

Fungi belong to one of the largest and most diverse kingdoms of living organisms. The evolutionary kinship within a fungal population has so far been inferred mostly from the gene-information-based trees ("gene trees"), constructed commonly based on the degree of differences of proteins or DNA sequences of a small number of highly conserved genes common among the population by a multiple sequence alignment (MSA) method. Since each gene evolves under different evolutionary pressure and time scale, it has been known that one gene tree for a population may differ from other gene trees for the same population depending on the subjective selection of the genes. Within the last decade, a large number of whole-genome sequences of fungi have become publicly available, which represent, at present, the most fundamental and complete information about each fungal organism. This presents an opportunity to infer kinship among fungi using a whole-genome information-based tree ("genome tree"). The method we used allows comparison of whole-genome information without MSA, and is a variation of a computational algorithm developed to find semantic similarities or plagiarism in two books, where we represent whole-genomic information of an organism as a book of words without spaces. The genome tree reveals several significant and notable differences from the gene trees, and these differences invoke new discussions about alternative narratives for the evolution of some of the currently accepted fungal groups.
