Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy in Children with Primary and Secondary Immune Deficiency.
Review in Pediatric allergy, immunology, and pulmonology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is a fatal demyelinating disease of the central nervous system that is caused by John Cunningham virus (JCV). It occurs almost exclusively in immunosuppressed individuals, for example, patients with AIDS and hematological and lymphoreticular malignancies. In this article, we present a review of the literature and 2 case reports with PML. The first report examines a 15-year-old male (who presented with dedicator of cytokinesis 8 deficiency) who was diagnosed as having PML based on characteristic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) lesions and a positive PCR for JCV in cerebrospinal fluid. He was transferred for bone marrow transplantation after stabilization with therapy of maraviroc and cidofovir. The second report examines a 6-year-old male who presented with encephalitis and was also diagnosed with AIDS. He was diagnosed with PML and started treatment with cidofovir. His clinical status and MRI findings deteriorated rapidly. In immunosuppressive patients who developed encephalopathy, JCV ought to be considered.
