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

Wild edible mushrooms can contribute to dietary diversity, especially among undernourished indigenous communities. A cross-sectional mixed-methods study was conducted to document the availability, taxonomic classification, nutritive values, and consumption frequency of wild mushrooms in four indigenous communities of Jharkhand. Over 70 wild mushrooms were reported during free listing with 35 being regularly consumed during the monsoon season, foraged from wild habitats, including forests and open spaces (roadsides and wastelands). We confirmed the taxonomic identification for sixteen mushrooms. The mushrooms identified belonged to mycorrhizal, termitophilic and saprobic species. Nutritive values were assessed through laboratory analysis (n=8) and secondary review (n=3). Most mushrooms contained significant amounts of proteins (
