Pulmonary mucormycosis in systemic lupus erythematosus: successful management of a case along with review of literature.
Review in Clinical rheumatology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Pulmonary mucormycosis is rare in systemic lupus erythematosus. A 20-year-old lady with lupus nephritis and neuropsychiatric lupus was treated with injection methylprednisolone and cyclophosphamide. After few days, she developed fever, breathlessness, and hoarseness of voice. After neck and chest imaging, possibility of mucormycosis was considered which was later confirmed on microbiological test. Patient was treated with conventional amphotericin B. Literature review was done, and 8 patients with disseminated or pulmonary mucormycosis were identified with SLE. In patients with high index of suspicion, early imaging can help in diagnosis and early and aggressive management even with conventional amphotericin B can result in favorable outcome. Key Points • Pulmonary mucormycosis in systemic lupus erythematosus is rare. • Radiological investigation can guide towards diagnosis. • Early and aggressive treatment can lead to good outcome.
