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

Fungal infections are responsible for about 70-80% of the losses in agricultural production brought on by microbial diseases. Synthetic fungicides have been employed to manage plant diseases caused by phytopathogenic fungi but their use has been criticized due to unfavorable side effects. As alternative strategies, botanical fungicides have caught the interest of many researchers in recent years. There are numerous experimental studies on the fungicidal activities of phytochemicals against phytopathogenic fungi, but there is not a thorough review article that summarizes these experimental studies. The purpose of this review is therefore to consolidate data from
