Genital herpes as still significant dermatological, gynaecological and venereological problem.
Review in Postepy dermatologii i alergologii, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Genital herpes is one of the most commonly diagnosed sexually transmitted diseases and the most common factor in the formation of ulcers and erosions within the mucous membranes. It is characterized by a wide range of clinical symptoms from serous-filled blisters located on the erythematous and oedematous substrate to asymptomatic infection. Due to anatomical differences in the genital tract, there is a more than a 4-fold increase in the risk of a woman being infected by a partner than a man by a woman. In addition, the transmission of herpes simple virus from mother to foetus becomes a serious gynaecological and neonatal problem, especially in women of childbearing age. Despite epidemiological studies, the incidence of genital herpes has not been fully understood, probably due to lack of harmonization of disease reporting systems in many countries, and to difficulties in diagnosis and treatment.
