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
Introduction: Most common superficial fungal infection is caused by dermatophytes, which infects skin, hair, and nail in all age groups. Candida spp. is also a known causative agent for superficial mycoses. The prevalence also depends on different demographical variations. Aim and Objectives: The present study was conducted to isolate and identify the fungal species by phenotypic and culture methods from patients suffering from superficial fungal infections and establish Materials and Methods: The skin scrapings, hair, nail clippings were collected from 330 patients, and KOH mount and fungal culture were performed. The culture-positive samples were subjected to lactophenol cotton blue (LPCB), slide culture and CHROM agar for species-level identification. Anti-fungal susceptibility testing was done on the candidaisolates. Results: Out of 330 specimens collected, 161 (49%) were skin scrapings, 42 (13%) were hair samples, and 127 (30%) were nail clippings. Most commonly isolated was Candida spp. in nail and Conclusion: All dermatophytes, non-dermatophyte molds (NDMs), and yeasts can cause infections of the skin, hair, and nails. The present study has highlighted the growing importance of NDMs as a cause of dermatomycoses. Among the
