Human cytomegalovirus and neonatal infection.
Review in Current research in microbial sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Human cytomegalovirus is an ancient virus that has co-evolved with humans. It establishes a life-long infection in suspectable individuals for which there is no vaccination or cure. The virus can be transmitted to a developing fetus in seropositive pregnant women, and it is the leading cause of congenital infectious disease. While the majority of infected infants remain asymptomatic at birth, congenital cytomegalovirus infection can lead to substantial long-term neurodevelopmental impairments in survivors, resulting in considerable economic and social hardships. Recent discoveries regarding cytomegalovirus pathophysiology and viral replication cycles might enable the development of innovative diagnostics and therapeutics, including an effective vaccine. This Review will detail our understanding of human cytomegalovirus infection, with an in-depth discussion regarding the viral genome and transcriptome that contributes to its pathophysiology. The neonate's clinical course will also be highlighted, including maternal and neonatal testing, treatment recommendations, and long-term outcomes.
