Prevalence, management, and new treatment modalities of EBV-DNA-emia and EBV-PTLD after allo-HCT: survey of Infectious Diseases Working Party EBMT.
Article in Bone marrow transplantation, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The aim of this study was to determine the current approach of EBV-driven post-transplant complications in context of monitoring, diagnosis, prevalence and treatment in EBMT transplant centers. Routine serology testing in patient and donor before HCT is performed in 95.5% centers. Pretransplant EBV-DNA is routinely tested in all patients in 32.7% centers. Monitoring for EBV infection is feasible in 98.2% centers: including 66.7% centers using standardized PCR. Post-HCT regular monitoring is performed in all patients in 80.5% centers. Anti-EBV prophylaxis with rituximab is used in 12.4% centers. Frequency of csEBV-DNA-emia was 7.4% (adults: 6.2%, children: 12.6%). The PCR threshold used to start preemptive treatment was differentiated among centers. Frequency of EBV-PTLD was 1.6% (adults: 1.3%; children: 3.5%). First-line therapy of EBV-driven complications was rituximab and reduction of immunosuppressive therapy. The rate of failure of first-line preemptive treatment was 12.0%. EBV-specific viral-specific T-lymphocytes were available in 46.0% centers. A number of new experimental therapies were given in 28 patients with resistant/refractory PTLD. In conclusion, the prevalence of EBV-DNA-emia and EBV-PTLD over the period 2020-2021 decreased in comparison to historical data. New trends (routine pretransplant screening for EBV-DNA, wider access to VST, new experimental therapies) are being observed in management of EBV infection after allo-HCT.
