Effective degradation of zearalenone by multiple microbial isolates.
Article in PeerJ, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Zearalenone (ZEN) is an estrogenic mycotoxin synthesized by specific fungal species that frequently colonize cereal crops such as maize, which is a fundamental component of animal feed. This mycotoxin induces significant reproductive disorders in swine and other livestock, resulting in considerable economic loss in the animal husbandry sector. ZEN contamination has emerged as a critical issue concerning global food and feed safety. The objective of this research was to isolate and characterize microorganisms from samples that can effectively detoxify ZEN. The samples were from six distinct sources: porcine feces, piggery soil, avian intestines, unpasteurized bovine milk, and feed that was left to mold. The spread plate technique was used to culture the samples and obtain pure cultures. The samples were identified by bacterial morphology and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. All the bacterial isolates identified in this study exhibited mycotoxin-degrading capabilities and included known ZEN-degrading species,
