1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Mucormycosis is a rare, life-threatening opportunistic fungal infection with high mortality rates that primarily affects immunocompromised patients. The co-occurrence of dengue fever and mucormycosis is extremely rare, with only a few cases reported worldwide. We report a case of a 50-year-old female diagnosed with mucormycos following dengue fever. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of invasive rhino-orbital mucormycosis following severe dengue fever in Vietnam. This case emphasizes the importance of close monitoring for opportunistic infections in patients with severe dengue fever and the necessity of combining antifungal therapy with surgical debridement to improve outcomes.
