Severe EBV hepatitis treated with valganciclovir.
Article in Infection, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
We describe the case of an 18-year-old immunocompetent male patient with severe hepatitis during primary Epstein-Barr virus infection, treated with oral valganciclovir. During the initial therapy with corticosteroids, the patient's clinical condition and liver function worsened, so we decided to add oral valganciclovir for its good bio-availability and previous encouraging experiences in different clinical settings, with rapid resolution of the symptoms.
