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

backgroundMycotoxin-producing fungal species and their mycotoxins pose a global threat for crop production and for human and animal health. Given the increasing demand for healthier food and feed, alternative non-pesticide approaches for reducing fungal infections in crops and eliminating mycotoxin contamination in feedstock are becoming more prevalent. For such purposes, yeast species can be good candidates. Thus, the present study examined the mycotoxin tolerance and mycotoxin elimination ability of several yeast strains belonging to the Trichomonascaceae family.

resultsWhile none of the tested yeasts inhibited the growth of different Fusarium species, several yeast strains exhibited tolerance to Fusarium mycotoxins such as deoxynivalenol, zearalenone, T-2 toxin, and fumonisin B1. Sugiyamaella novakii strains displayed exceptional tolerance for the tested mycotoxins. Besides, phylogenetic analyses suggested that tolerant species clustered more closely to each other than to the sensitive species. Although whole genome sequencing of S. novakii NCAIM Y.00986 revealed several enzyme-coding genes that may have a role in mycotoxin elimination, significant mycotoxin elimination was not achieved in the case of deoxynivalenol, T-2 toxin, and fumonisin B1. However, S. novakii successfully eliminated zearalenone, likely due to cell wall adsorption rather than enzymatic degradation.

conclusionsThis study highlights the potential of S. novakii for zearalenone detoxification and emphasizes the role of yeast cell walls in mycotoxin mitigation strategies.
