Monkeypox virus isolation from longitudinal samples from four patients to infer risk of onwards transmission: an interim analysis.
Article in The Journal of hospital infection, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Monkeypox virus (mpxv) is a DNA virus in the Orthopoxvirus genus which causes Mpox (previously monkeypox). Symptoms include fever, lymphadenopathy and vesicular lesions. There is limited evidence for the duration of mpxv infectivity. This study used cell culture as a proxy for infectivity. Clinical samples from four patients with Mpox were inoculated into African green monkey kidney (Vero E6) cells and monitored for cytopathic effects (CPE). From one patient, infectious mpxv was recovered 25 days after illness onset. Infectious virus was not isolated from samples with an Orthopoxvirus polymerase chain reaction (PCR) Ct value over 31.0, nor from urine.
