Tracheobronchial mucormycosis successfully treated with venous-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation combined with prolonged amphotericin B instillation by Bronchoscopy: a case report.
Article in BMC infectious diseases, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
backgroundTracheobronchial mucormycosis is a fatal opportunistic infection that mainly causes airway stenosis and is difficult to manage clinically. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a case of severe tracheal stenosis caused by tracheobronchial mucormycosis in a 37-year-old female with a history of hyperthyroidism. She developed agranulopenia after oral methimazole administration and subsequently experienced asthma with dyspnea. Bronchoscopy, sputum culture, colony mass spectrometry, and microscopic cotton orchid staining confirmed tracheobronchial mucormycosis. The patient received venous-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) and prolonged intratracheal instillation of amphotericin B (AmBD), combined with amphotericin B liposome (L-AmB) and isavuconazole intravenous infusion, ultimately resulting in successful treatment.
conclusionVV-ECMO combined with prolonged intratracheal instillation of AmBD is an effective method for the treatment of tracheobronchial mucormycosis.
