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

Under favorable conditions even molds can cause skin infections. Fusarium spp. belong to this group of agents. Onychomycoses due to Fusarium spp. are regularly encountered and cannot be clinically distinguished from nail infections triggered by dermatophytes. They can occur in otherwise healthy persons. Skin lesions caused by Fusarium spp. may be necrotizing, ulcerating, pustular, vasculitis-like, panniculitis-like or granulomatous. Single lesions can develop after fungal inoculation into damaged tissue; multiple ones are often due to a septic dissemination of Fusarium in severely immunocompromised patients. An immediate verification of the agents can be life-saving in such cases. Pathogenic Fusarium spp. should be identified at the species level and need to be tested for their susceptibility to antimycotics. In case of multiple lesions, systemic therapy is required. Many strains of Fusarium spp. are susceptible to amphotericin B, voriconazole and posaconazole; itraconazole and terbinafine may be helpful in certain cases.
