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
Introduction: Filamentous fungi are crucial for the production of commercial enzymes, organic acids, antibiotics, and many other organic compounds. Citric, acetic, and gluconic acids are among the organic acids that are produced from fungi and have many functions. They are mostly used as a chemical reagent, fungicide, herbicide, microbicide, pH adjuster, counterirritant, and solvent in a variety of industries, including food, agriculture, cleaning, and cosmetics. Objectives: This study aimed to study the diversity of selected organic acids (citric, acetic, and gluconic acids) produced by filamentous fungi isolated from the agricultural soils of North Gondar, Ethiopia. Methods: In this study, a total of 36 soil samples were randomly collected from agricultural fields at different locations in North Gondar, Ethiopia. The isolates were identified to the genus and species level based on morphological study and sequencing methods (ITS1-5·8S-ITS2 region). Their distribution was evaluated with respect to different agroecologies (climate conditions). The organic acid production capacity of the isolates was evaluated. Results: Based on the results of morphological characteristics and ITS1-5·8S-ITS2 region gene sequencing, 12 filamentous fungi were obtained. All 12 filamentous fungal isolates had one common ancestor and belonged to Conclusion: Organic acid-producing filamentous fungi could be isolated from varied agroecologies.
