Management of coronavirus disease (Covid-19) associated mucormycosis with palatal ulcer, dental pain and anterior maxillary teeth mobility- A clinical dilemma of Covid 19 pandemic in India.

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
Mucormycosis represents a group of life-threatening infections caused by fungi of the order mucorales of subphylum mucormycotina. Due to high vascularity, the maxilla rarely undergoes necrosis. Mucormycosis is an opportunistic fulminant fungal infection, which mainly infects immune-compromised patients. Due to the inhalation of fungal spores, the infection may begin in the nose and paranasal sinuses. Necrosis of hard and soft tissues is due to thrombosis of arteries, which is caused by the inhalation of fungal spores. We report a case of maxillary necrosis by mucormycosis in a COVID-19-recovered patient to emphasize the early diagnosis of this potentially fatal fungal infection. We reviewed the current concepts in the management of mucormycosis and different diseases that can lead to maxillary necrosis. The mortality and morbidity of this lethal fungal infection can be successfully reduced by early diagnosis and quick treatment by the general primary care provider, family physicians, and dentists.
