Infectious complications of immune modulatory agents.
Article in Current infectious disease reports, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Immune modulatory agents used in solid organ transplantation and other disciplines have various mechanisms of action and differences in the duration and intensity of immunosuppression. While newer agents have improved patient outcomes, an important result of these immune modulatory agents is associated infections, caused by organisms such as cytomegalovirus, BK polyomavirus, Epstein-Barr virus and tuberculosis. Herein, we review the infectious complications of several newer immune modulatory drugs-belatacept, alemtuzumab, and rituximab-and focus on their use in solid organ transplantation. New immune modulatory agents can potentially modify the landscape of allograft rejection and noninfectious and infectious complications. Health-care practitioners should remain familiar with these agents and their potential infectious complications to help ensure optimal patient outcomes.
