Congenital cytomegalovirus infection as an important cause of infantile cholestatic jaundice: a case report.
Article in The Pan African medical journal, 2020. 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
Infantile cholestasis has numerous causes and diagnosis can be difficult, especially in low-income countries where essential laboratory facilities are not readily available. This is a report of a baby who had severe conjugated neonatal hyperbilirubinaemia and deranged liver function tests, which posed a diagnostic dilemma before a diagnosis of congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection was made. He was treated with Ganciclovir and responded well to treatment. He had no obvious associated neurologic manifestation of the disease and is presently been followed-up. This report highlights the challenges encountered in the diagnosis and management of the baby, as well as the favourable outcome with Ganciclovir therapy. The aim of the report is to increase the awareness of paediatricians and other stakeholders on congenital CMV infection in order to ensure early diagnosis and appropriate treatment of affected babies, with the ultimate aim of improving their prognoses and preventing the associated audiologic and cognitive sequelae.
