Analytical Performance and Inter-Method Agreement of a Laboratory-Developed CMV qPCR Assay in Clinical Plasma Samples.
Article in Microorganisms, 2026. 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
backgroundCytomegalovirus (CMV) viral load monitoring forms the basis of preemptive treatment strategies in patients undergoing solid organ and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. This study aimed to evaluate the analytical performance and inter-method agreement of a laboratory-developed CMV real-time PCR (qPCR) test compared to a commercial reference method using plasma samples.
methodsA total of 100 EDTA plasma samples were analyzed in parallel using a laboratory-developed CMV qPCR test and the reference method (Roche Cobas
resultsThe limit of detection (LoD
conclusionsThe assay demonstrated measurable analytical performance and inter-method agreement; however, its use for quantitative viral load monitoring, particularly at low CMV DNA levels, should be interpreted with caution.
