1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) can reactivate in the mammary gland during lactation and is shed into breast milk of nearly every HCMV-IgG-seropositive mother of a preterm infant. Dynamics of breast milk leukocytes during lactation, as well as blood leukocytes and the comparison between both in the context of HCMV reactivation is not well understood. Methods: Here, we present the BlooMil study that aimed at comparing changes of immune cells in blood and breast milk from HCMV-seropositive- vs -seronegative mothers, collected at four time ranges up to two months post-partum. Viral load was monitored by qPCR and nested PCR. Multiparameter flow cytometry was used to identify leukocyte subsets. Results: CD3 Conclusion: Taken together, we conclude that the distribution of breast milk leukocyte populations is different from blood leukocytes and may contribute to the decrease of breast milk viral load in the late phase of HCMV reactivation in the mammary gland.
