Human foamy virus bel1 sequence in patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases.
Article in Clinical rheumatology, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Since the association between human foamy virus (HFV) with rheumatic autoimmune diseases remains controversial, this study was designed to determine the relationship between HFV and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), or progressive systemic sclerosis (PSS). The bel1 and Pol sequences of HFV were measured by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in plasma and by PCR in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from patients with SLE, RA, and PSS. Antibodies against Bel1 and Pol were assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Active HFV infections were detected by a Bel1-responsive indicator cell line. The bel1 sequence was detected in the plasma (SLE 59, RA 32, and PSS 63%) and PBMC (SLE 54, RA 71, and PSS 57%). However, active HFV infection existed only in patients with the bel1 sequence in both plasma and PBMC. In SLE patients, antibodies against Bel1 (7.1%) and Pol (4.5%) were also detected. The results suggest a possible association between HFV infection and these autoimmune rheumatic diseases.
