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

Filamentous fungus (moulds) create secondary metabolites called mycotoxins, which can be dangerous. These minuscule molecules (typically less than 1 000 Da) are almost inescapably found in nature. Aspergillus, Penicillium, Fusarium, and Alternaria are among the fungal species that produce mycotoxins. If these secondary metabolites make their way into the food chain and production, they are harmful and have a big effect. In African countries like Nigeria that rely significantly on staple foods like grains, cereals, and nuts, mycotoxin contamination is especially problematic. Mycotoxins have attracted international interest due to their effects on human health, significant financial losses, and both domestic and international trade. Due to concerns about food safety and financial losses, the majority of research has been on aflatoxins, ochratoxin A, fumonisin, zearalenone, and Fusarium toxins, despite the fact that over 400 mycotoxins have been found. Understanding how interacting abiotic factors connected to climate change-particularly rising temperatures, higher CO
