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

Chronic intertrigo of toe-web space is a recalcitrant problem which is often associated with multi-organism infections. For this, a number of topical therapies with preventative measures are used, but many of them are cumbersome and not very effective. Cryotherapy is a good option for treating the toe intertrigo, but its availability is a major concern. Here as an alternative to cryotherapy, trichloroacetic acid (TCA) cautery and Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) (a broad spectrum anti-infective agent) solution is advocated as a simple, feasible, and cost-effective treatment of chronic inter digital intertrigo.
