Cutaneous mucormycosis in a young immunocompetent host - a case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Cutaneous mucormycosis is a rare disease, which commonly affects immunocompromised individuals. It is highly invasive with devastating outcomes. Prompt actions such as surgical debridement and early initiation of antifungals are necessary to prevent the infection's rapid progression. Unfortunately, due to its rarity and frequent negative fungal cultures, diagnosis, and treatment are often delayed. Here, we have described a case of a young immunocompetent individual with cutaneous mucormycosis of the arm. Her diagnosis was made on clinical suspicion, later confirmed with tissue histopathology. She underwent surgical debridement and was started on antifungals. Unfortunately, due to the rapid spread of the infection, an amputation became necessary to prevent further complications.
