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

Introduction: Orchid mycorrhizal fungi are essential partners for orchid seed germination and survival, yet the full diversity of fungi associated with orchid roots, including nonmycorrhizaltaxa, remains poorly characterized, particularly in the Southern Hemisphere. This could impact orchid conservation and Methods: We used ITS regsion for fungal metabarcoding, sampling eleven species of the genus Results: Root-associated communities were dominated by Ascomycota and were highly variable in composition among individuals and species, with orchid mycorrhizal fungi representing only a minor fraction of total diversity and the family Tulasnellaceae absent from all samples. Community composition differed significantly among Discussion: These findings demonstrate the value of untargeted sequencing for revealing the breadth of orchid-fungi associations, and highlight that mycorrhizal specificity could vary markedly across
