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

backgroundGiven the resistance of plant pathogenic fungi to traditional chemical fungicides and the associated risks to human and environmental safety, there is an urgent need for safe and effective alternative fungicides. Butylidenephthalide, an active compound from Ligusticum chuanxiong essential oil, exhibits potent antifungal activity against Sclerotium rolfsii, a destructive plant pathogen that causes stem rot in peanuts. However, the molecular mechanism of butylidenephthalide against S. rolfsii remains unclear.
