1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Maribavir is indicated for the treatment of refractory cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection/disease in patients who have undergone a solid organ transplant (SOT) or hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT). Only limited data on its use in real-world settings have been published from retrospective series. This retrospective study describes the real-world effectiveness of maribavir in 79 transplant patients with refractory CMV infection (67 SOT and 12 HCT) treated under a compassionate use program in France between October 2021 and April 2023. Maribavir was administered for <8 weeks, 8 weeks, and >8 weeks in 17, 32, and 30 patients, respectively. The response rate, defined as viremia clearance, was 53.2%, with a median time to first CMV clearance of 59 days. CMV clearance was observed in patients beyond 8 weeks of treatment.
