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

Despite the extensive studies on plant and animal endemism in the Galápagos Islands, fungal diversity remains largely unexplored, particularly in fumarole environments. Here, we explore the fungal diversity in two gypsum incrustations within an active fumarole of Sierra Negra volcano (Isabela Island). We hypothesize that minor differences in the chemical and mineralogical characteristics of these substrates, despite similar environmental conditions, lead to distinct fungal communities with substrate-specialized taxa. Alpha diversity indices showed no significant differences, but beta diversity analysis revealed two distinct fungal communities (PERMANOVA
