Covid-Associated Mucormycosis in a Case of Wegener's Granulomatosis: A Management Challenge.
Article in Indian journal of otolaryngology and head and neck surgery : official publication of the Association of Otolaryngologists of India, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A Gentleman in his 40s presented to us with left-sided hemifacial pain and nasal discharge for the last three days. He has been on immunosuppressive therapy for Wegener's Granulomatosis for over five years. Crusting was seen in the Left middle meatus upon clinical examination. Based on the post-covid status, steroid therapy, KOH mount, and radiologic imaging, a provisional diagnosis of Sinonasal mucormycosis was considered. He was posted for emergency debridement followed by Liposomal Amphotericin B and steroid therapy. Surgical histopathological specimens were suggestive of Mucormycosis. Limited sinonasal disease with no intracranial, orbital, or palatal involvement was seen in a background of Wegener's Granulomatosis, Covid, and immunosuppressive therapy. Steroids are condemned as a predisposing factor to mucormycosis. Still, the combination of Liposomal Amphotericin B and steroids was used, opening new avenues for managing mucormycosis in patients with vasculitis. The patient is well nine months post-surgery with no signs of disease relapse.
