Circulating cytokine and chemokine patterns associated with cytomegalovirus reactivation after stem cell transplantation.
Article in Clinical & translational immunology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Objectives: Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) reactivation is the leading viral complication after allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Understanding of circulating cytokine/chemokine patterns which accompany HCMV reactivation and correlate with HCMV DNAemia magnitude is limited. We aimed to characterise plasma cytokine/chemokine profiles in 36 allo-HSCT patients (21 with HCMV reactivation and 15 without HCMV reactivation) at four time-points in the first 100-day post-transplant. Methods: The concentrations of 31 cytokines/chemokines in plasma samples were analysed using a multiplex bead-based immunoassay. Cytokine/chemokine concentrations were compared in patients with high-level HCMV DNAemia, low-level HCMV DNAemia or no HCMV reactivation, and correlated with immune cell frequencies measured using mass cytometry. Results: Increased plasma levels of T helper 1-type cytokines/chemokines (TNF, IL-18, IP-10, MIG) were detected in patients with HCMV reactivation at the peak of HCMV DNAemia, relative to non-reactivators. Stem cell factor (SCF) levels were significantly higher before the detection of HCMV reactivation in patients who went on to develop high-level HCMV DNAemia (810-52 740 copies/mL) Conclusion: This study identifies distinct circulating cytokine/chemokine signatures associated with the magnitude of HCMV DNAemia and the progression of HCMV reactivation after allo-HSCT, providing important insight into immune recovery patterns associated with HCMV reactivation and viral control.
