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
Colletotrichum spp. and Botrytis cinerea are the main causal agents of grape bunch rot in Brazil. Although chemical control is widely used, it has limitations, such as the selection of resistant pathogen populations and environmental concerns. Biological control emerges as a promising alternative; however, commercial products for viticulture remain limited. We hypothesized that by prospecting endophytic microorganisms from berries of Vitis hosts more resistant to rots, it would be possible to identify isolates with greater biocontrol potential. In this study, 52 endophytic isolates from berries of V. labrusca cv. 'Bordô' were evaluated. In vitro assays showed mycelial growth inhibition of C. nymphaeae and B. cinerea of up to 33% and 60%, respectively. Three isolates antagonistic to both pathogens were molecularly identified as AvCaPR20-VA4L (Clavispora asparagi), AvZmPR20-VB5B (Zygoascus meyerae), and AvTmPR20-PA1N (Tatumella sp.). In postharvest assays, the isolates achieved 31.5-73.5% control of grape ripe rot (C. nymphaeae) and 39.1-59.4% control of gray mold (B. cinerea), with AvTmPR20-PA1N showing the highest efficacy, comparable to chlorothalonil. In untreated berries, disease incidence reached 53.1% for grape ripe rot and 100% for gray mold. Next-generation sequencing of the natural berry microbiota revealed the recurrent presence of Clavispora and Tatumella in non-inoculated 'Bordô' vines, confirming their natural association with grape berry tissues. These findings highlight the potential of exploring microbial diversity from naturally resistant plants as a sustainable strategy for biological disease management in viticulture.
