Comprehensive analysis of parvovirus B19 infection in blood donors: epidemiological trend and implications for transfusion safety and management strategies in Italy.
Review in Blood transfusion = Trasfusione del sangue, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Parvovirus B19 (B19V) presents a significant concern in the context of blood transfusion safety, given its potential for transmission through contaminated blood products, and the increased viral circulation recently reported across Europe. This study examines the recent epidemiological trends of B19V in Italy, where a notable increase in B19V-positive plasma units was observed during early 2024. While routine NAT testing for B19V in individual blood donations is not currently justified, the existing screening protocols for plasma intended for industrial fractionation are crucial to ensure the safety of plasma-derived medicinal products. However, this situation requires careful consideration of the optimal management of viremic donors and the implementation of targeted look back procedures to trace and monitor recipients of labile blood components. To address these issues, we propose an algorithm for managing both donors and recipients in cases of B19V positivity. These measures aim to balance recipient safety with minimising donor loss, while also addressing significant operational and ethical considerations within blood establishments.
