Therapeutic Updates on the Management of Tinea Corporis or Cruris in the Era of
Article in Indian journal of dermatology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 emergence and spread of Trichophyton indotineae (T. indotineae) has led to a sea change in the prescription practices of clinicians regarding the management of dermatophytic skin infections. An infection easily managed with a few weeks of antifungals, tinea corporis or cruris, is now often chronic and recurrent and requires prolonged treatment. Rising resistance to terbinafine, with documented squalene epoxidase (SQLE) gene mutations, and slow clinical response to itraconazole leave clinicians with limited treatment choices. However, in these testing times, it is essential that the tenets of antifungal stewardship be followed in making therapeutic decisions, and that the existing armamentarium of antifungals be used in rationale ways to counter this extremely common cutaneous infection, while keeping the growing drug resistance among dermatophytes in check. This review provides updated evidence on the use of various systemic antifungals for dermatophytic infection of the glabrous skin, especially with respect to the emerging T. indotineae species, which is gradually becoming a worldwide concern.
