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
Stripe rust caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), represents one of the most significant challenges to the world's wheat production. This study aimed to investigate five aggressive physiological races of Pst impacting significant wheat cultivars in Egypt's northern Delta, which are essential for breeding programs. Moreover, the study evaluated the antifungal activity and mechanisms of action of chitosan nanoparticles, Trichoderma harzianum, and Sargassum latifolium against Pst using molecular docking analysis. During the 2024 growing season, an increase in the virulence of newly identified aggressive Pst races in Egypt was detected. A total of 20 and 23 races were recognized from 89 out of 132 samples in 2023 and 86 out of 115 samples in 2024, respectively. In addition, twenty Egyptian wheat cultivars and fifty-two CIMMYT nursery lines were screened at the Sakha Agricultural Research Station for resistance to five aggressive stripe rust races at both seedling and adult stages. The results revealed that most cultivars were susceptible, with only two (10%) and five (25%) displaying resistance. Among the CIMMYT entries, 17 (33%) and 21 (40%) confirmed resistance in 2023 and 2024, respectively. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers were used to identify the five Pst races, and phylogenetic analysis was conducted using representative fungal species from genomic databases. The five aggressive races were deposited in the GenBank database under accession numbers PV983376, PV983377, PV983378, PV983379, and PV983380. Biological treatments using S. latifolium, T. harzianum, and chitosan nanoparticles significantly decreased stripe rust disease severity. These findings recommend that such treatments can support high-quality wheat flour production and serve as safe, environmentally friendly alternatives to synthetic fungicides. Molecular docking analysis further elucidated the mechanisms of antifungal action, particularly highlighting the effectiveness of S. latifolium and T. harzianum against Pst races. Overall, this investigation exhibits strong potential for improving wheat cultivars with enhanced yield and resistance to aggressive stripe rust races, contributing to sustainable disease management strategies.
