Comparative analyses of DNA extraction methods for whole blood quantification of HCMV DNAemia in patients with hematological diseases: false negative cases in manual method.
Article in Heliyon, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 (HCMV) DNA quantitation in whole blood (WB) by real-time or quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) is a highly sensitive and reproducible diagnostic procedure for monitoring HCMV DNAemia (DNAemia is the detection of DNA in samples of plasma, whole blood, isolated peripheral blood leukocytes or in buffy-coat specimens) in patients. We provided a comparative analysis of HCMV DNA extraction performance by two different techniques, one performed by an automated extractor and the other by a manual method. We observed that the automated extraction method allowed HCMV DNA detection in the presence of weak viremia while no differences are observed when the viral load is greater. Therefore, automated DNA extraction is a suitable and recommended protocol not only for early detection of HCMV infection but also for more accurate monitoring of HCMV DNAemia during post-therapy follow-up.
