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
Cytomegalovirus infection is one of the most serious pathogens affecting solid organ transplant recipients. Cytomegalovirus has been identified as a risk factor for graft rejection, cardiac allograft vasculopathy and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Viral clearance is not achieved in all patients despite standard antiviral therapy; therefore, there is great interest in prevention and treatment strategies, as use of specific cytomegalovirus immunoglobulin, to avoid progression to organ involvement. Dose regimen of specific cytomegalovirus immunoglobulin is not well studied, especially in cytomegalovirus disease. We present the case of late onset of tissue invasive disease, pneumonitis, in young female patient after heart transplantation with acute renal failure, successfully treated with frequent intermittent cytomegalovirus immunoglobulin followed by renal dosed ganciclovir.
