Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV6) infection.
Review in Indian journal of pediatrics, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Human herpes virus-6 was first reported in 1986 and is the sixth member of the herpes virus family. HHV-6 consists of two closely related variants HHV-6A and HHV-6B. The majority of infections occur in healthy infants with most infections caused by HHV-6B. The virus preferentially infects CD4+T-lymphocytes and the surface marker CD46 acts as a co-receptor. Infection is followed by persistence and latency in different cells and organs including monocytes/macrophages, salivary glands, the brain and the kidneys. In this article we will discuss the clinical manifestations of HHV-6 infection in healthy children and the syndromes associated with HHV-6 reactivation in immunocompromised patients. Evidence of association between HHV-6 infection and different clinical entities such as multiple sclerosis, malignancy, infectious momononucleosis, drug hypersensitivity syndromes and skin eruptions is discussed. Published data on the use and efficacy of antiviral agents in complicated infections and infections in immunocompromised patients is presented.
