Laboratory diagnostic testing for cytomegalovirus infection in solid organ transplant patients.
Review in Korean journal of transplantation, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection, which is one of the most common complications in transplant recipients, increases the risk of graft loss and rejection. Laboratory strategies for diagnosing CMV infection rely on the measurement of viral DNAemia and CMV-specific cell-mediated immunity (CMV-CMI). The CMV quantitative nucleic acid amplification test (QNAT) enabled the spread of preemptive therapy and prompted recommendations for surveillance, diagnosis, and monitoring. Despite the implementation of the World Health Organization international standard for calibration, variability of QNAT persists due to technical issues. CMV immunoglobulin G serology is the standard method for CMV immune screening of transplant candidates and donors. Assays for CMV-CMI play an important role in helping to predict the risk and to develop an individualized CMV management plan. Genotypic testing for resistance is needed when drug-resistant CMV infection is suspected. Here, we review the state of the art of laboratory tests for CMV infection in solid organ transplantation.
