Post Covid rhino - Orbital cerebral mucormycosis among Indian patients.
Article in Bioinformation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
The clinical profile, risk factors, diagnostic methods, therapeutic interventions and outcomes of post-COVID rhino-orbital cerebral mucormycosis (ROCM) cases in a tertiary care center in Eastern India is of interest. This prospective study included 102 post-COVID patients diagnosed with rhino-orbital cerebral mucormycosis over one year at a tertiary care center. Clinical data, imaging, microbiological findings, treatments and outcomes were recorded. All patients received antifungal therapy, with surgical intervention as needed. Out of 102 post-COVID patients diagnosed with rhino-orbital cerebral mucormycosis, 79.4% had diabetes mellitus and 85.3% had a history of corticosteroid use. Orbital involvement was seen in 74.5% of patients, with cerebral extension in 33.3%. Surgical intervention was required in 76.4% of cases and the overall mortality rate was 18.6%. Post-COVID mucormycosis is a rapidly progressive and life-threatening infection strongly associated with diabetes and corticosteroid use. Early diagnosis, prompt antifungal therapy and timely surgical intervention are critical for improving outcomes.
