Bioactive and unusual steroids from Penicillium fungi.
Article in Phytochemistry, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Penicillium fungi are represented by various species and can be found worldwide and thrive in a range of environments, such as in the soil, air, and indoors, and in marine environments, as well as food products. Chemical investigation of species of this genus has led to the discovery of compounds from several structural classes with varied bioactivities. As an example, this genus has been a source of bioactive and structurally unusual steroids. The scope of this short review is to cover specialized metabolites of the steroid class and the cytotoxic, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory as well as phytotoxic activities of these compounds. Other steroids that possess unusual structures, with significant bioactivity yet to determined, will also be discussed to further demonstrate the structural diversity of this compound class from Penicillium fungi, and hopefully inspire the further exploration of such compounds to uncover their activity.
