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

In lakes, fungi play pivotal roles in biogeochemical processes, particularly in the decomposition of organic matter. However, these organisms have been underrepresented and taxonomically unresolved in previous research. In this study, we employ high-resolution sequencing to delve into the fungal diversity within two distinct Scandinavian Lake data sets spanning a vast latitudinal gradient across Norway and Sweden, diverse climatic zones ranging from nemoral to arctic, and a wide spectrum of nutrient conditions. Utilizing eukaryotic 18S primers, we reveal that fungi contribute, on average, 2.07% in the Norwegian and 5.4% in the Swedish sequencing data set, with remarkable spikes of up to 55% in forested lakes. Fungus-specific 5.8S-ITS2 sequencing identified the prevalence of several fungal phyla, including IMPORTANCE: Fungi perform a range of key functions in freshwater environments. Here, we show that fungi, including members of the phyla
