Air detection of monkeypox virus in a dedicated outpatient clinic room for monkeypox infection diagnosis.
Article in The Journal of infection, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
backgroundThe World Health Organization (WHO) reported an outbreak of monkeypox virus (MPXV) in Western countries on May 12
methodsWe collected air samples using the AerosolSense™ device in a dedicated room where monkeypox suspected patients were examined in our quaternary hospital's outpatient infectious disease clinic. Samples were analyzed with a MPXV PCR to determine the presence of viral DNA in the air.
resultsThe study took place from July 26
conclusionThis investigation reports the presence of MPXV DNA in air samples collected in a room dedicated to monkeypox-infected patients' examination and testing. Thus, we highlight the importance of personal protective equipment worn by consulting patients and healthcare workers and surface decontamination to avoid infection transmission.
