Some Like It Rock 'N' Cold: Speleomycology of Ravništarka Cave (Serbia).
Article in Journal of fungi (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Caves and other subterranean ecosystems are characterized by stable, low temperatures, high humidity, and limited nutrient input, creating unique environments for extremophilic microorganisms. Among them, fungi play key roles in organic matter degradation, mineral interactions, and biogeochemical cycling, yet the diversity and adaptations of cold-adapted fungi in cave habitats remain insufficiently explored. This study investigated psychrophilic and psychrotolerant fungi inhabiting the stone surfaces of Ravništarka Cave in Eastern Serbia. Biofilm samples were collected from nine sites and analyzed using culture-based isolation on both nutrient-rich and diluted media, followed by incubation at 10 °C, 25 °C, and 37 °C. Fungal identification combined morphological characteristics with molecular analyses of the ITS region and
