Intrathecal rituximab for the treatment of Epstein-Barr virus-associated encephalitis.
Review in Frontiers in immunology, 2025. 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
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated encephalitis is seen in patients who have undergone allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant and can be associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The mainstay of treatment has been antiviral therapy with nucleoside analogues and reduction of immunosuppression. Here, we describe an adult patient diagnosed with refractory EBV-associated encephalitis within 30 days post-allogeneic transplant successfully treated with intrathecal rituximab, which, to our knowledge, is the first case treated in this manner.
