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

Chemical fungicides remain a primary tool for managing Fusarium head blight (FHB) due to the lack of resistant wheat cultivars. In this study, we synthesized 101 2-cyanoacrylate compounds and identified ZJS-178 as particularly effective against Fusarium graminearum (the causal agent of FHB), inhibiting both hyphal growth and conidial germination. Notably, ZJS-178 is specific to Fusarium species, with no impact on other fungi. It also shows no cross-resistance with other groups of fungicides, suggesting a unique mode of action. Mechanistic studies revealed that ZJS-178 targets myosin I in F. graminearum, inhibiting ATPase activity and disrupting endocytosis. Furthermore, ZJS-178 impairs toxisome formation, leading to reduced production of the mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON). These findings position ZJS-178 as a promising antifungal agent that could pave the way for developing a novel fungicide to manage FHB and other Fusarium-related diseases.
