Review in Indian journal of community medicine : official publication of Indian Association of Preventive & Social Medicine, 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
Background: Human metapneumovirus (hMPV), discovered in 2001, has emerged as a significant respiratory pathogen, particularly affecting vulnerable populations such as children, the elderly, immunocompromised individuals, those with underlying pulmonary conditions, and healthcare workers. Objective and Methods: This review aims to summarize current knowledge on hMPV and consolidate published data from India. A comprehensive literature search was conducted using databases including PubMed, Google Scholar, and DOAJ with specific keywords focused on hMPV. Results: hMPV is an enveloped, single-stranded RNA virus belonging to the Conclusion: In conclusion, hMPV constitutes a notable portion of severe acute respiratory infection (SARI) cases among both children and adults in India. It is important to consider the possibility of hMPV while investigating SARI cases.
