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

backgrounddermatophytoses are a current fungal infection, caused by keratinophilic fungi (dermatophytes) able to invade the nails, hair and skin of humans and animals.

aimthe aim of this study was to establish the epidemiological and mycological profile of dermatophytes isolated in the parasitology-mycology laboratory of the Mohammed VI University Hospital in Oujda.

methodsthis is a 48-month retrospective study from January 2019 to December 2022.The study includes samples taken or sent to our parasitology-mycology laboratory for mycological study. A direct examination and culture were performed on each biological specimen. Species identification was based on macroscopic and microscopic colony criteria.

resultsin the present report we reviewed 950 mycological samples. Dermatophytes were isolated in 505 (53.15%) cases. The most common infections were tinea unguium (n=353; 69.90%), followed by tinea corporis (n=123; 5.74%) and tinea capitis (n=29; 5.98%). Trichophyton rubrum was the most frequently incriminated species.

conclusiondermatophytes are the most frequent mycoses in humans. They are generally benign and often develop in a chronic and frequently recurrent pattern. Mycological examination is essential. It confirms the fungal origin and isolates the species responsible, in order to identify the source of contamination and implement an appropriate treatment.
