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

Onychomycosis is a fungal infection of the nail that may result from dermatophytes, non-dermatophyte molds, or yeasts. Among non-dermatophyte molds, Aspergillus niger is a recognized species with the potential to cause nail infections. While such infections were traditionally reported in immunocompromised individuals, they have also been increasingly observed in immunocompetent hosts. This condition carries clinical importance due to its potential for recurrence and resistance to treatment. Herein, we present a case of a 25-year-old immunocompetent female with a single fingernail onychomycosis caused by A. niger.
