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

There have been a variety of complications reported during and post- COVID infection. Recently, there has been an increase in sporadic cases of paranasal sinus mucormycosis in COVID- 19 patients. We report a case of COVID- 19 patient diagnosed to have orbital apex syndrome secondary to mucormycosis of nose and paranasal sinus requiring emergency endoscopic sinus surgery. Appropriate use of personal protective equipment and safety precautions taken by health care workers prevented the spread of the virus during surgery.
