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 identification of fungal pathogens in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues is an unmet need in human and animal medicine, and sequence-agnostic approaches are needed to identify emerging pathogens. Eleven FFPE biopsy specimens with etiologic diagnoses of fungal disease based on standard testing of paired fresh tissue samples were utilized here to evaluate metabarcoding approaches. The cases included tissues from three dogs, three cats, one box turtle, one goat, one common loon, and one gray tree frog. The diagnoses from the fresh tissues in these cases were
