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

introductionThis study compiles ethnomycological information from Andorra, which, in general terms, has remained unexplored compared with plants. Andorra (468 km

methodsSemi-structured individual or collective interviews were conducted with informants selected via the snowball sampling technique. Oral consent was obtained from all 131 informants (born between 1914 and 1975), and data were recorded in the research group database. The obtained data were qualitatively and quantitatively analysed.

resultsFifty taxa belonging to 23 mycological families were reported in this study. The interviewed informants provided 1,172 use reports (URs) of 42 useful taxa, with culinary uses being the most reported, with 1,142 (97.44%), followed by 21 (1.79%) other uses and nine (0.77%) medicinal uses. Marasmius oreades (Bolton) Fr., Boletus sect. Boletus L., Lactarius sect. Deliciosi (Fr.) Redeuilh, Verbeken & Walleyn, Gyromitra esculenta Pers. ex Fr., and Sparassis crispa (Wulfen) Fr. were the most cited wild edible mushrooms (WEMs) in Andorra. In addition to individual uses, 152 fungal mixtures (four used for medicinal purposes and 148 for culinary uses) were identified in this study. Information about poisonous mushrooms was collected for a total of 11 taxa. For 98% of the taxa (49), a total of 155 vernacular names were documented. The informant consensus factor (F

conclusionsThis study enriches existing ethnomycological knowledge through ethnobotanical prospection, revealing the diversity of vernacular names and uses of WMs in Andorra. Several taxa with strong traditional use but lacking nutritional data were identified as candidates for further research and potential food innovation.
