During a 2-year period 30 adults were selected out of a group of patients diagnosed with erysipelas, who, except for tinea pedis, were apparently otherwise healthy patients. Clinical and epidemiological studies were performed to establish how tinea pedis and erysipelas are related. Thirteen of 30 patients with a diagnosis of erysipelas were found to have tinea pedis due to Trichophyton mentagrophytes and Trichophyton rubrum. In seven of the patients (23%) tinea pedis was found to be the unique predisposing factor for erysipelas. Tinea pedis may be a risk factor for streptococcal infections such as erysipelas, mainly in tropical countries, where tinea pedis is a frequent disease.
在为期两年的时间里，从一组被诊断患有丹毒的患者中挑选出30名成年人，这些患者除足癣外，其他方面显然健康。进行了临床和流行病学研究，以确定足癣与丹毒之间的关系。在30名诊断为丹毒的患者中，有13名被发现患有由须癣毛癣菌和红色毛癣菌引起的足癣。在7名患者（23%）中，足癣被发现是丹毒的唯一诱发因素。足癣可能是丹毒等链球菌感染的一个危险因素，主要在热带国家，那里足癣是一种常见疾病。
