Unveiling the Uncommon: Gastrointestinal Mucormycosis Unmasked by Gastrointestinal Bleeding.
Article in ACG case reports journal, 2026. 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
Gastrointestinal mucormycosis is a rare but life-threatening invasive fungal infection carrying mortality rates approaching 85%. We report 3 cases of gastric mucormycosis managed at our institution. Two patients presented atypically-one with refractory seizures and another with severe respiratory distress-resulting in diagnostic delays and subsequent fatal outcomes despite antifungal therapy. A third patient, diagnosed promptly following early esophagogastroduodenoscopy and biopsy, achieved complete clinical recovery. Rapid disease progression demonstrated the aggressive nature of this condition, but early diagnosis greatly improved outcomes. These cases collectively highlight the critical importance of maintaining a high index of clinical suspicion, pursuing early endoscopic biopsy of atypical gastric ulcerations, and initiating timely antifungal therapy to optimize patient prognosis.
