Sensitivity of leather tanned by ancient techniques to fungal infestation.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
Ancient leather cultural relics are prone to degradation caused by fungal infection after long-term burial. Although tanning can significantly lower the susceptibility of leather to fungal invasion, research on the correlation between ancient tanning technologies and fungal infection remains insufficient. In this study, leather samples prepared by ancient tanning methods (including aluminum tanning, iron tanning, vegetable tanning, smoke tanning, and oil tanning) were used as experimental materials. Fungal tolerance tests of tanning agents and antifungal infection experiments were carried out to reveal the relationship between different ancient tanning techniques and fungal invasion. The experimental results showed that iron and aluminum tanning agents exerted obvious inhibitory effects on leather‑destructive fungi. Vegetable‑tanned, aluminum‑tanned, and iron‑tanned leathers exhibited excellent antifungal infection resistance, while oil‑tanned and smoke‑tanned leathers displayed relatively poor antifungal performance. This study verified that tanning agents employed in ancient leather manufacturing have inherent antifungal properties, and the tanning process can effectively reduce the fungal sensitivity of leather.
