Lung resection from wedge to pneumonectomy as surgical options for pulmonary mucormycosis.

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
Pulmonary mucormycosis (PM) is a rare and life-threatening condition, most prevalent in immunocompromised patients. Early signs and symptoms are often nonspecific. A high index of suspicion in at risk patients should prompt early infectious work-up, including bronchoscopy, followed by aggressive antifungal therapy and early surgical resection when indicated. We demonstrate these core tenants of diagnosis and management of PM via two patient presentations, the first involving a kidney transplant recipient who presented with a mild cough, found to have a lung lesion with rapid growth over a few weeks; the second involving a patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia who presented with hemoptysis and imaging revealing a 5 cm perihilar mass obliterating the left pulmonary artery. Both patients were managed with aggressive surgical therapy.
