Human cytomegalovirus DNA detection in a recurrent glioblastoma multiforme tumour, but not in whole blood: a case report and discussion about the HCMV latency and therapy perspectives.
Article in Journal of neurovirology, 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
In the current study, a 58-year-old male patient presented with recurrent glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). The patient underwent surgical resection, 4 months earlier, followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy. During the second surgical intervention, tumour tissue and whole blood were sampled and analysed for human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) DNA, immediate early (IE) mRNA and pp65 mRNA. HCMV DNA was detected only in the recurrent tumour tissue but not in the whole blood. Neither IE mRNA nor pp65 mRNA was expressed. Our result suggests HCMV latency in the brain tumour with detectable level of viral DNA. More data are needed to understand the HCMV infection chronology in the brain tumours but our data could be important for further studies of HCMV antigens on the tumour surface and anti-GBM therapy.
