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 have been recognised as a prolific source of structurally unique secondary metabolites with promising pharmacological properties. This review comprehensively summarises the chemical architectures, bioactivities, and research strategies for new fungal-derived natural products, focusing on representative studies published in 2024. A total of 907 novel fungal-derived compounds are systematically cataloged (isomers are also contained in the total count), including 284 polyketides, 362 terpenoids, 28 steroids, 108 alkaloids, 75 peptides, and 50 glycosides, while highlighting cutting-edge methodologies such as metabolomics-guided discovery platforms and biosynthetic pathway engineering. By establishing connections between chemical novelty and therapeutic value, this review not only provides strategic guidance for fungal chemical diversity exploration but also illuminates their transformative potential in overcoming drug discovery bottlenecks.
