SIADH secondary to rhino-orbito-cerebral mucormycosis: A case report.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2024. 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
Key Clinical Message: Invasive fungal mucormycosis and its outcome as SIADH and orbital apex syndrome is uncommon. Mucormycosis in paranasal sinuses can even lead to intracranial invasion and its treatment with the use of amphotericin B can cure improve the prognosis of the disease. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment with antifungal, endoscopic surgery, and controlling of diabetes can be beneficial. Abstract: Mucormycosis is an opportunistic invasive fungal infection which is rare and fatal and can even cause intracranial invasion leading to SIADH. The infrequency with which mucormycosis with SIADH is encountered makes it a formidable diagnostic challenge. 70-year-old women uncontrolled diabetes mellitus presented with bilious vomiting and persistent headache with ptosis, proptosis, absence of extraocular movement, pupillary light reflex, and light perception of left eye. Radiographic investigation, KOH mount, and Biopsy showed mucormycosis in sinus with intracranial extension leading to SIADH. Further investigation revealed hyponatremia, decreased plasma osmolality. Then, when diabetes was controlled and hydrocortisone and amphotericin was given along with Endoscopic sinus debridement, SIADH was well controlled. This case illustrates the potential of mucormycosis in paranasal sinuses can even lead to intracranial invasion and its treatment with the use of amphotericin B can cure improve the prognosis of the disease. Prompt diagnosis through clinical history, radiological investigation, and laboratory parameters are important and its treatment is crucial for the better prognosis.
