Impact of SARS-CoV-2 on Viral Respiratory Infections in Patients with Hematological Malignancies.
Article in Viruses, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Patients with hematological malignancies (HMs) are at high risk of respiratory viral infections due to the intrinsic deterioration of the immune system and chemotherapy treatments. In the recent past, SARS-CoV-2 respiratory viral infection has been responsible for most infectious complications in HMs. We analyzed 2950 samples from 505 patients admitted to the Hematology department from 2019 to 2023. The aim of this study was to determine the epidemiological trend of respiratory viruses in the SARS-CoV-2 era, the characteristics of the patients involved and their outcomes. In our analysis, we found a reduction in non-SARS-CoV-2 respiratory viral (NSRV) positivity during the pandemic period, although these data did not show statistical significance. Most of the HMs involved were Multiple Myeloma and Acute Myeloid Leukemia. Overall mortality rate was very low and characterized by the progression of the HMs as well as the worsening of respiratory failure. In conclusion, a reduction in non-COVID viral infections was highlighted, probably also thanks to the increase in prevention measures and environmental modifications of the viral background.
