A Mouse Model That Mimics AIDS-Related Cytomegalovirus Retinitis: Insights into Pathogenesis.
Review in Pathogens (Basel, Switzerland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
With the appearance of the worldwide AIDS pandemic four decades ago came a number of debilitating opportunistic infections in patients immunosuppressed by the pathogenic human retrovirus HIV. Among these was a severe sight-threatening retinal disease caused by human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) that remains today a significant cause of vision loss and blindness in untreated AIDS patients without access or sufficient response to combination antiretroviral therapy. Early investigations of AIDS-related HCMV retinitis quickly characterized its hallmark clinical features and unique histopathologic presentation but did not begin to identify the precise virologic and immunologic events that allow the onset and development of this retinal disease during HIV-induced immunosuppression. Toward this end, several mouse models of experimental cytomegalovirus retinitis have been developed to provide new insights into the pathophysiology of HCMV retinitis during AIDS. Herein, we provide a summary and comparison of these mouse models of AIDS-related HCMV retinitis with particular emphasis on one mouse model developed in our laboratory in which mice with a murine acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (MAIDS) of murine retrovirus origin develops a reproducible and well characterized retinitis following intraocular infection with murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV). The MAIDS model of MCMV retinitis has advanced the discovery of many clinically relevant virologic and immunologic mechanisms of virus-induced retinal tissue destruction that are discussed and summarized in this review. These findings may extend to the pathogenesis of AIDS-related HCMV retinitis and other AIDS-related opportunistic virus infections.
