Human pegivirus -1 (HPgV-1) RNA frequency and genotype distribution in pediatric oncology patients with febrile neutropenia.
Article in Virus research, 2024. 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
Human Pegivirus-1, typically regarded as a commensal virus, exhibits high prevalence in humans. Its frequency and impact on oncologic pediatric patients with febrile neutropenia (FN), a frequent chemotherapy complication, remains unexplored. In this study, we assessed HPgV-1 RNA prevalence in pediatric patients experiencing FN. Blood samples were collected from 30 children, 15 presenting FN and 15 comprising a control group of either undergoing treatment or in remission. Overall, HPgV-1 RNA was detected in 23.3 % of samples (26.7 % among FN patients and 20.0 % among those under treatment or in remission). Phylogenetic analysis unveiled HPgV-1 genotype 2 predominance among these samples, the most prevalent strain circulating in Brazil. Our findings prompt crucial inquiries into the role of HPgV-1 RNA in FN: is it an incidental finding and if it can influences this clinical entity? Further investigation is imperative to elucidate HPgV-1 implications in vulnerable patients cohorts, potentially informing new approaches and understanding viral dynamics in immunocompromised populations.
