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

The relationships between mycotoxins content in food commodities or feedstuffs and the foodborne diseases is well known. So far, the available data mainly include chemical methods of mycotoxins decontamination for agricultural commodities or raw materials, including mycotoxin binders. Therefore, the possible use of some natural and cost-effective supplements such as herbs, fungi, microorganisms, or plants with powerful and safe protection against mycotoxin-induced health ailments is the main subject of this review paper. Various antagonistic microorganisms or yeast with fungicidal properties, as well as some herbs or plants that suppress fungal development and the subsequent production of target mycotoxins and/or have protective effect against mycotoxins, are deeply studied in the literature, and practical suggestions are given in this regard. The protection by degradation, biotransformation, or binding of mycotoxins by using natural additives such as herbs or plants to feedstuffs or foods has also been thoroughly investigated and analyzed as a possible approach for ameliorating the target adverse effects of mycotoxins. Possible beneficial dietary changes have also been studied to potentially alleviate mycotoxin toxicity. Practical advice are provided for possible application of the same natural supplements in real-life practice for combating mycotoxin-induced health ailments. Natural feed supplements and bioactive compounds appeared to be safe emerging approaches to preventing health ailments caused by mycotoxins. However, the available data mainly address some in vitro studies, and more in vivo experiments are necessary for introducing such approaches in the real-life practice or industry. Generally, target herbal supplements, antioxidants, or polyenzyme complements could be used as powerful protectors in addition to natural mycotoxin binders. Bioactive agents and enzymatic degradation are reported to be very successful in regard to PAT and OTA, whereas antagonistic microorganisms/fungi/yeasts have a successful application against AFs and PAT-producing fungi.
