1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a common posttransplant infection, most commonly seen in settings of excessive immunosuppression. Before the advent of CMV specific antiviral therapies, the standard treatment approaches for CMV disease were immunosuppression reductions to let the transplant recipient mount an immunologic response against CMV. Additionally, CMV is rarely identified as causing stricturing enteritis and has not previously been reported as causing stricturing enteritis in an adult transplant recipient. All identified reports of stricturing CMV enteritis have been reported in either pediatric patient populations or those with severe immunosuppression from human immunodeficiency virus and acquired immune deficiency syndrome. Our report presents the unusual case of an adult liver transplant recipient many years after transplant and on minimal immunosuppression with mycophenolate alone who developed stricturing CMV enteritis.
