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

Background: The widespread occurrence of chronic and recurrent dermatophytosis has significantly affected the quality of life for patients in India and beyond. Identifying the causative dermatophytes and understanding their antifungal susceptibility can aid clinicians in tailoring effective antifungal therapies. Materials and Methods: Patients with chronic and recurrent dermatophytosis were enrolled, and conventional fungal cultures were conducted on skin scrapings. Identified isolates underwent antifungal susceptibility testing using the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute broth microdilution method (CLSI M38-A2) for common systemic antifungals, determining the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) range and calculating MIC 50 and MIC 90. Results: Sixty samples were tested. Tinea corporis was the most common presentation (66.6%). Limitations: Absence of genotyping of isolate and not compared the results with studies where sequence-based identification to species level was done. Conclusion:
