Zygomaticomaxillary Osteomyelitis due to COVID-19 Associated Mucormycosis (CAM): A Case Series of 10 Patients.
Article in Journal of maxillofacial and oral surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Aim: To highlight the incidence of osteomyelitis due to CAM and to elucidate the mode of spread of infection from maxilla to zygomatic bone, to highlight how that is distinct from other cases of zygomatic osteomyelitis due to other etiologies. Methods: A standard protocol of treatment of the cases of CAM with zygomatic involvement based on our own outcomes was furnished. All 10 patients were treated with dual antifungal therapy and aggressive surgical resection via extraoral approach, in conjunction with functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS). Results: Ten out of 116 patients of CAM reporting to our institute presented with zygomatic bone involvement with an incidence rate averaging at 8.6%, whereas in previous literature osteomyelitis of zygomatic bone was extremely rare with an incidence pattern of just 1.42%. Conclusions: The treatment protocol followed by the authors gave good outcomes to all patients treated, with no mortalities.
