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
Onychomycosis can present with various manifestations such as subungual hyperkeratosis, onycholysis, and nail plate destruction. Here we present a case of a 61-year-old African male with a known case of type 2 diabetes mellitus on insulin. He worked as a mechanic and presented with nail changes that started four months prior to presentation and worsened over time, mainly affecting the fingernails of bilateral hands. On examination, there was yellowish to greenish discoloration with very extensive hyperkeratosis of skin around the fingers and nails that caused avulsion of nails. Swab and culture showed Candida albicans +3. Nail and skin biopsy showed bacterial colony with fungal hypha. The patient showed marked improvement after receiving oral fluconazole 300 mg weekly for three months.
