Subtyping of BK Virus in Iranian Turkish Renal Transplant Recipients by RFLP-PCR.
Article in Maedica, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionBK polyomavirus (BKV) as a member of polyomavirus family is prevalent in the human population. BKV persists in renal tissue after asymptomatic infection in childhood. The reactivation of BKV in renal transplant recipients sometimes can lead to BKV associated nephropathy. BKV isolates are classified into four serologically distinct subtypes. Present study was carried out to investigate the distribution pattern of BKV subtypes in Iranian Turkish renal transplant recipients. MATERIALS AND
methodsUrine samples from 12 kidney transplant recipients infected with BKV were analyzed by RFLP-PCR technique for classification of subtypes.
resultsOur analysis showed that all samples were infected with BKV type I. BK virus types II, III, and IV were not detected in our patients.
conclusionsBased on the results of the present study, BKV subtype I was the most frequently detected subtype in renal transplant recipients. To our knowledge, the present study provides the first data regarding distribution of BKV subtypes in Iranian renal transplant recipients.
