Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) induced pneumonitis in a patient with breast cancer receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy: A case report.
Article in Respiratory medicine case reports, 2023. 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
Background: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) usually leads to latent infection and is reported mostly in infectious mononucleosis, lymphoma, and cancer in adolescents and adults, but pneumonitis due to EBV infection in adults is rare. Case presentation: We hereby reported a case of a 52-year-old woman with breast cancer who developed acute pneumonia during neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Her serologic workup revealed a low CD4 Conclusions: This case highlights the combined application of mNGS and traditional tests in the clinical diagnosis of invasive pulmonary infection. In the meanwhile, clinicians should be aware neoadjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer carries a risk of EBV induced pneumonitis, so that EBV induced pneumonitis could be considered in differential diagnosis while similar patients present, to orchestrate improvements in diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis.
