Emerging Prognostic and Predictive Biomarkers for Human Cytomegalovirus Infection During Pregnancy: Unmet Needs and Future Perspectives.
Review in Viruses, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 (HCMV) infection during pregnancy is a leading cause of congenital infections worldwide, posing significant risks to fetal health. Despite advances in prenatal care, managing HCMV infection remains challenging. Early detection, accurate risk assessment, and timely intervention are critical to mitigating the adverse outcomes associated with congenital HCMV (cHCMV), such as neurodevelopmental delays and hearing loss. However, the current landscape of biomarkers for HCMV infection in pregnancy is marked by several unmet needs. These gaps in biomarker development and application limit our ability to predict fetal transmission, assess the risk of fetal damage, and prognosticate long-term outcomes. Addressing these challenges through the identification and validation of novel biomarkers could revolutionize the management of HCMV in pregnancy, leading to improved outcomes for both mothers and their children. This review examines the critical unmet needs regarding HCMV biomarkers during pregnancy, emphasizing the priority areas for further research and innovation.
