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

Two new species (Agaricus tumlingensis, and A. philippei) and one new record (A. kunmingensis) belong to the sect. Rubricosi of the subg. Pseudochitonia, are described from India based on morphological and molecular sequence (nrITS and LSU rDNA) data. Agaricus tumlingensis is distinguished by its medium to large-sized basidiomata, brown to dark brown squamulose pileus, ellipsoid to elongate basidiospores with a range value of 5.5-7.5 × 3.5-4.0 μm, and cheilocystidia measuring 15-34 × 9-17 μm. Agaricus philippei has a dark brown appressed squamulose pileus, ellipsoid basidiospores with a range value of 4.5-5.1 × 2.5-3.0 μm, and cheilocystidia measuring 11-21 × 7-14 μm. Detailed morphological descriptions, illustrations, field photographs of the collected basidiomata, comparisons with morphologically similar species, and phylogenetic analysis results based on the nrITS and nrLSU sequence data are provided.
