The Effect of Early Postnatal Nutrition on Human T Cell Leukemia Virus Type 1 Mother-to-Child Transmission: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Synthesis in Viruses, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
The main route of mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of human T cell leukemia virus type 1 is vertical transmission via breastfeeding. Although the most reliable method for preventing MCTC is exclusive formula feeding (ExFF), short-term breastfeeding (STBF) or frozen-thawed breast milk feeding (FTBMF) has been offered as an alternative method if breastfeeding is strongly desired. The aim of this review was to clarify the pooled risk ratio of MCTC of STBF and FTBMF compared with ExFF. This study was registered with PROSPERO (number 42018087317). A literature search of PubMed, CINAHL, the Cochrane Database, EMBASE, and Japanese databases through September 2018 identified 1979 articles, 10 of which met the inclusion criteria. Finally, 11 articles, including these 10 studies and the report of a recent Japanese national cohort study, were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled relative risks of STBF ≤3 months, STBF ≤6 months, and FTBMF compared with ExFF were 0.72 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.30-1.77;
