What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.

Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This completed study looked at scalp ringworm, a common fungal infection in children, across 11 French centers in 2023. Researchers collected 701 fungal samples to identify the species and test their sensitivity to common antifungal drugs. The goal was to understand which fungi cause infections and whether resistance to treatments like terbinafine is emerging, helping guide future treatment choices.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors choose better treatments for scalp ringworm in children by understanding which fungi are common and whether they resist current drugs.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It describes the problem but does not test a new therapy, so direct patient benefits are not guaranteed.
