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
Oesophageal mucormycosis is an uncommon life-threatening opportunistic fungal infection usually managed with antifungal therapy and aggressive surgical debridement. We describe a 54-year-old male who developed oesophageal mucormycosis 3 months post-allograft for multiply-relapsed leukaemia. Surgery was not performed due to prohibitive perioperative risk. He received 6 weeks of intravenous Liposomal Amphotericin B followed by long-term isavuconazole. Serial endoscopy and PET/CT imaging demonstrated resolution of infection to 7 months post-transplant where he died from relapsed leukaemia. We demonstrate that antifungal therapy alone may be efficacious where surgery is contraindicated and highlight the utility of PET/CT imaging for staging and monitoring this disease.
