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 occupy many niches, are a major component of life, and contribute significantly to biodiversity. While fungi are rarely associated with human and animal diseases, they are often associated with diseases of plants as well as decay and nutrient cycling in the environment. Fungal diseases in agricultural crops can cause reductions in crop production and quality. In the context of human health, some fungi can also produce toxins that can accumulate in agricultural products, thereby affecting food safety and health. This chapter focuses on the complex interactions between fungi and agricultural crops in the context of human health, using fungi that infect and contaminate grain crops as examples.
