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 skin infections represent a significant global health burden, affecting approximately one billion people annually. Despite their prevalence and major global health impact, the molecular mechanisms underlying pathogenicity remain largely uncharacterized. Here we present high quality genomic datasets for 51 fungal strains, representing highly prevalent and clinically relevant species associated with human skin infections. Comparative genomics reveal substantial variation in genome size and gene contents, indicating genome compaction occurred as the fungi transitioned from free-living to host-associated lifestyles. We report two non-hybrid strains of
