Positive correlation between VCA-IgM and Th1/Th2 immunocytokines in children with infectious mononucleosis.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveTo analyze the correlation between immunoglobulin M (IgM) against viral capsid antigen (VCA) of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and T helper 1 and 2 (Th1/Th2) immunocytokines (ICKs) in children with infectious mononucleosis (IM).
methodsThis is a retrospective study. A total of 40 children with IM treated in our hospital from August 2019 to August 2021 were included in the research group, and another 42 children with upper respiratory tract infection treated during the same period were selected as the control group. The VCA-IgM positive (+) rate and Th1/Th2 ICKs in two groups were detected, and the correlation of VCA-IgM with Th1/Th2 ICKs in IM patients was analyzed.
resultsThe research group was found to have an evidently higher VCA-IgM+ rate than the control group. Moreover, the accuracy of VCA-IgM in detecting IM was as high as 91.46%. In addition, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interferon-γ (IFN-γ), interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-10 presented markedly elevated levels in the research group than in the control group, and in VCA-IgM negative (-) patients compared with VCA-IgM+ patients. There was a positive connection between VCA-IgM and Th1/Th2 ICKs.
conclusionsIM children showed high VCA-IgM+ rate and imbalance of Th1/Th2 ICKs, and their VCA-IgM and Th1/Th2 ICKs are positively correlated. In addition, VCA-IgM has certain diagnostic value for IM.
