Results of Routine Antenatal Screening for Cytomegalovirus at a Tertiary Center.

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
Objective: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is the most common viral infection. In this study, we discussed the results of pregnant women who underwent antenatal CMV screening in a tertiary center and the value of CMV antenatal screening. Methods: For this retrospective study, the data of pregnant patients with antenatal CMV screening test results between 2019 and 2022 were obtained from hospital records. CMV immunoglobulin M (IgM), CMV IgG, anti-IgG avidity test results, amniocentesis, CMV polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and the outcome of the babies were recorded. Results: A total of 31,912 CMV IgM and 26,969 CMV IgG tests were performed. CMV IgG seropositivity was observed in 78.99% of pregnant women, and 0.09% of the pregnant women were confirmed to have a positive CMV IgM test result. Pregnant women with positive IgM accompanying low avidity were referred to perinatology clinics for detailed ultrasonography and amniocentesis. Only 3 of the 44 pregnant women who underwent amniocentesis were confirmed to have positive CMV PCR testing. Conclusions: CMV screening should be preserved for pregnant women with ultrasonographic findings at high risk of congenital CMV infection.
