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

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly proposed for diagnosing superficial mycoses, yet whether this literature covers the diagnostic pathway evenly, and is mature enough for clinical translation, remains unclear. We mapped AI applications onto an operational partition of the diagnostic pathway (D1-D4), a construct of this review: pre-analytical clinician-facing imaging (D1), analytical microscopy and histopathology (D2), analytical molecular identification (D3) and integrative post-analytical interpretation (D4). Thirty-three primary studies (2007 to 2026) were included, 85% published since 2021 and predominantly from Asia. Applications concentrated on D2 (
