Cytomegalovirus ileitis with protein-losing enteropathy in an immunocompetent adult.
Article in Clinical journal of gastroenterology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Symptomatic cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in immunocompetent hosts has traditionally been considered to have a benign, self-limited course, and those who need intensive therapy are rare. Moreover, there are few reports of CMV infection with protein-losing enteropathy (PLE). We present an immunocompetent 74-year-old woman with CMV ileitis with PLE, which was diagnosed due to severe hypoalbuminemia and edema of the lower extremities. The patient was not immunocompromised, because a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody test was negative and she had not been taking immunosuppressants. Imaging tests including colonoscopy revealed ileitis with shallow widespread ulcers.
