Behavior of deteriogenic fungi in aviation fuels (fossil and biofuel) during simulated storage.

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
Biofuels are expected to play a major role in reducing carbon emissions in the aviation sector globally. Farnesane ("2,6,10-trimethyldodecane") is a biofuel derived from the synthesized iso-paraffin route wich can be blended with jet fuel; however, the microbial behavior in farnesane/jet fuel blends remains unknown. The chemical and biological stability of blends should be investigated to ensure they meet the quality requirements for aviation fuels. This work aimed at evaluating the behavior of two fungi Hormoconis resinae (F089) and Exophiala phaeomuriformis (UFRGS Q4.2) in jet fuel, farnesane, and in 10% farnesane blend during simulated storage. Microcosms (150-mL flasks) were assembled with and without fungi containing Bushnell & Haas mineral medium for 28 days at a temperature of 20±2°C. The fungal growth (biomass), pH, surface tension, and changes in the fuel's hydrocarbon chains were evaluated. This study revealed thatthe treatment containing H. resinae showed a biomass of 19 mg, 12 mg, and 2 mg for jet fuel, blend, and farnesane respectively. The pH was reduced from 7.2 to 4.3 observed in jet fuel treatment The degradation results showed that compounds with carbon chains between C
