Skull base osteomyelitis: A case report of Garcin syndrome due to mucormycosis in COVID pandemic.
Article in IDCases, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Garcin syndrome is characterized by progressive unilateral multiple cranial nerve palsy without the presence of intracranial hypertension. In this case, we present a patient who experienced lower cranial nerve (CN 9-12) involvement attributed to post-mucormycosis osteomyelitis of the skull base. The osteomyelitis resulting from mucormycosis led to the development of Garcin syndrome, which manifested as progressive paralysis of the cranial nerves. It is important to recognize this rare complication and consider it in the differential diagnosis when evaluating patients with lower cranial nerve palsy following mucormycosis-related skull base osteomyelitis.
