Use of a sample-to-result shotgun metagenomics platform for the detection and quantification of viral pathogens in paediatric immunocompromised patients.

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
Background: Infections by several DNA viruses can severely impact outcomes in paediatric immunocompromised patients. Current testing, which is generally limited to singleplex qPCR assays, can miss both common and rarer viruses if they are not targeted. Objectives: To evaluate the performance of the Galileo Viral Panel (Galileo), a sample-to-result shotgun metagenomics platform for the detection and quantification of 12 DNA viruses, compared to standard of care qPCR assays. Study design: A clinical performance evaluation was carried out using 43 prospectively collected EDTA plasma samples positive for one or more DNA viruses. Agreement between assays was assessed by overall, positive, and negative percent agreement, as well as quantitative agreement by linear regression and Bland-Altman analysis. Results: Overall positive percent agreement was 84% (95% CI: 76%-90%), and negative percent agreement was 95% (95% CI: 92%-97%). There was a high correlation between Galileo and qPCR for ADV, CMV, EBV, and VZV ( Conclusion: We observed high qualitative and quantitative agreement between qPCR and Galileo. Galileo identified additional viruses that were not tested with routine qPCR and could impact clinical outcomes.
