Mucormycosis and Cryptococcosis with Gastrointestinal Involvement in a Patient with Poorly Managed Diabetes.
Article in Saudi journal of medicine & medical sciences. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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 and cryptococcosis are invasive fungal infections that mostly infect immunocompromised patients and are associated with high mortality rates. Here, we report a case of a 54-year-old male with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus who was initially admitted with a complaint of right frontal headache and vomiting for 5 days. The patient was found to have paranasal sinuses mucormycosis, and later developed gastrointestinal cryptococcosis. A multidisciplinary approach and early management are important to avoid any delay in managing these life-threatening infections. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first case reporting concurrent invasive fungal infections in a patient.
