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 biocontrol mechanisms of yeasts are gaining global attention as a vital response to the rising threat of antimicrobial resistance in emerging pathogens. With their diverse genetic traits, yeasts present potent antagonistic capabilities that have extensive applications across various sectors. This review examines the fundamental mechanisms and molecular bases of yeast antagonism, emphasizing innovative screening techniques for identifying effective strains. Key molecular methods, including gene identification, sequence analysis, and expression studies, reveal insights into their modes of action, such as nutrient competition, mycocin production, and volatile organic compound release. While the potential of antagonistic yeasts spans crop protection, food safety, and disease prevention, their commercial availability remains limited. To foster adoption, there is an urgent need for advanced screening methods and deeper molecular understanding. Future research should prioritize the optimization and commercialization of yeast-based biocontrol products, effectively bridging the gap between scientific discovery and practical application in combating harmful pathogens.
