Serum Macro- and Trace-Element Alterations and Redox Imbalance in Cattle with Naturally Occurring Dermatophytosis.

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
This study determined the etiological distribution of naturally occurring bovine dermatophytosis and evaluated associated serum macro- and trace-element and redox alterations. Seventy-five calves and young cattle aged 2-12 months, of both sexes and mixed local, Simmental, Brown Swiss/Montofon, and crossbred types, were included: 50 clinically and mycologically confirmed dermatophytosis cases and 25 clinically healthy controls. Skin scrapings and hair samples from affected cattle were examined by direct microscopy and culture. Single jugular blood samples were collected from all animals during the same seasonal period (February-May 2026), and serum mineral and redox markers were analyzed. Copper, zinc, cobalt, selenium, molybdenum, manganese, magnesium, calcium, sodium, iron, and chromium concentrations, catalase (CAT), reduced glutathione (GSH), and malondialdehyde (MDA) were measured. Data were analyzed using a general linear model including group and sex as fixed effects and age in months as a covariate. Model-adjusted results were expressed as least-squares means ± standard error (LSM ± SE).
