Synchronous Mucocutaneous Paracoccidioidomycosis and Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma: Report of Two Rare Cases.
Article in Journal of cutaneous pathology, 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
Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a neglected systemic mycosis in Latin America that frequently involves the oral cavity. We herein describe two rare cases of synchronous mucocutaneous PCM and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) in 42- and 48-year-old men from an endemic area of Southeast Brazil. Clinically, both patients presented with painful, ulcerated oral lesions exhibiting granular/moriform features and multifocal involvement. PCM was confirmed by histopathological examination demonstrating pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia and granulomatous inflammation with fungal yeast forms, supported by Grocott-Gomori methenamine silver staining. Fungal culture yielded cerebriform colonies with multiple budding yeasts. Chest radiography demonstrated PCM-related pulmonary involvement in both patients, and one also exhibited cutaneous disease. Itraconazole was prescribed for both patients; however, treatment was discontinued in one case due to resumption of alcohol consumption and in the other due to homelessness. In both cases, OSCC involved the floor of the mouth; one patient underwent surgical resection, whereas the other is currently receiving chemoradiotherapy. Given that OSCC may coexist with oral PCM, clinicians should maintain a high index of suspicion when evaluating granulomatous/moriform oral lesions and perform timely, multi-site biopsies, particularly in endemic areas.
