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 ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs) are a vital class of natural products known for their biological activities including anticancer, antitubulin, antinematode, and immunosuppressant properties. These bioactive fungal RiPPs play key roles in chemical ecology and have a significant therapeutic potential. Their structural diversity, which arises from intricate post-translational modifications of precursor peptides, is particularly remarkable. Despite their biological and ecological importance, the discovery of fungal RiPPs has been historically challenging and only a limited number have been identified. To date, known fungal RiPPs are primarily grouped into three groups: cycloamanides and borosins from basidiomycetes and dikaritins from ascomycetes. Recent advancements in bioinformatics have revealed the vast untapped potential of fungi to produce RiPPs, offering new opportunities for their discovery. This review highlights recent progress in fungal RiPP biosynthesis and genome-guided discovery strategies. We propose that combining the knowledge of fungal RiPP biosynthetic pathways with advanced gene-editing technologies and bioinformatic tools will significantly accelerate the discovery of novel bioactive fungal RiPPs.
