New γ-Unsaturated Lactone and Aliphatic Acid From the Deep-Sea-Derived Fungus Penicillium crustosum HDN17-68.
Article in Chemistry & biodiversity, 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
Marine fungal natural products are valuable sources of structurally diverse and biologically active compounds with potential applications in drug discovery and biotechnology. The fungus Penicillium crustosum is an important source of bioactive natural products that display significant antibacterial properties. This study describes the isolation and characterization of two new structures including one γ-unsaturated lactone named crustosulin A and one aliphatic acid named crustosenoic acid A along with ten known compounds from a marine-derived fungus Penicillium crustosum HDN17-68, which is isolated from the Western Pacific deep-sea mud sample. Compounds were isolated and purified through column chromatography and HPLC, and structures were elucidated using spectroscopic tools including NMR, MS, and ECD. Compound 1 represents the first example of a dimeric γ-unsaturated butyrolactone incorporating a β-to-α connectivity and it exhibited weak activity against Salmonella enterica and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), with MIC values of 32 and 64 µg/mL, respectively. These findings expand the chemical diversity of secondary metabolites from deep-sea-derived Penicillium fungi.
