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

Fungi are ubiquitous organisms that are capable of transient or persistent colonization in humans. Their polymorphic nature and complex host-mycobiome interactions remain incompletely understood. Emerging evidence highlights the role of resident fungi in modulating immune responses and adapting to host changes, which can trigger a shift from commensalism to parasitism, particularly in immunocompromised individuals. This study evaluated the effects of two major β-glucans-zymosan and curdlan-on the expression of pattern recognition receptors (
