Cylindracin, a Cys-rich protein expressed in the fruiting body of Cyclocybe cylindracea, inhibits growth of filamentous fungi but not yeasts or bacteria.

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
Mushrooms are the fruiting bodies of fungi and are important reproductive structures that produce and disseminate spores. The Pri3 gene was originally reported to be specifically expressed in the primordia (a precursor to the mature fruiting body) of the edible mushroom Cyclocybe aegerita. Here, we cloned a Pri3-related cDNA from Cyclocybe cylindracea, another species in the same genus, and showed that the gene is specifically expressed at the pileus surface of the immature fruiting body but not in the primordia. Immunohistochemistry showed that the translated protein is secreted into a polysaccharide layer of the pileus surface. The recombinant C-terminal Cys-rich domain of the protein showed antifungal activity against three filamentous fungi and inhibited hyphal growth and conidiogenesis. These results suggest that the PRI3-related protein of C. cylindracea, named cylindracin, plays an important role in the defense against pathogens.
