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

The cajuzinho do cerrado (Anacardium humile-Anacardiaceae), a shrub species native to Brazil, is harvested for multiple uses in food and medicine. Members of a harvesting community, near the municipality of Bonito de Minas, Minas Gerais state, Brazil reported characteristic symptoms of shoot blight and dieback reducing pseudofruit and seed production by this plant. This study aimed to identify the etiological agent of this disease. Two fungal isolates were obtained from symptomatic leaf samples and morphologically and molecularly characterized. The fungus was identified, based on morphological analyses, as a probable new species of Pseudoplagiostoma. Phylogenetic analyses based on a combination of DNA sequence data (nuc rDNA ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region, tef1-α and tub2), confirmed this hypothesis. The isolates obtained were allocated to a distinct, well-supported clade (IB = 0.99, ML = 100%), placed as a unique lineage here proposed as a new species named Pseudoplagiostoma humilis. The pathogenicity test confirmed that this new species was the causal agent of shoot blight and dieback on A. humile. This is the fourteenth Pseudoplagiostoma species reported in the world and the third in Brazil.
