Glycemic Control and Mucormycosis during COVID-19 Pandemic in India a Study of Stage and Outcome.

The stage of mucormycosis at presentation greatly impacts its treatment course and prognosis. Prior research has failed to evaluate an association of patient factors, especially glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels and random blood sugar (RBS) at presentation, with the stage and outcome of mucormycosis.
