Looking at the Possibility of Using Mushroom Mycelium for Developing Leather-like Materials Aligned with Eco-Friendly and Sustainable Fashion Trends.
Article in Life (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
The growing demand for sustainable alternatives to animal and synthetic leathers has accelerated interest in mycelium-based materials as an eco-friendly solution for the fashion industry. This study explores the potential of mushroom mycelium to create leather-like materials that align with circular fashion principles. Five species of edible and medicinal mushrooms were cultivated on sawdust substrates and evaluated for their growth performance, physical properties, and suitability as leather substitutes. Growth analysis revealed distinct species-specific behaviors:
