MPXV infection impairs IFN response but is partially sensitive to IFN-γ antiviral effect.
Article in Medical microbiology and immunology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
The recent outbreak of monkeypox virus (MPXV) has caused global concern. How the virus evades the interferon (IFN) response is still poorly understood. We analyzed type I/II IFN (IFN-I/II) expression in clinical samples from MPXV-infected patients and measured IFN-I kinetics in MPXV-infected cells. We also evaluated the anti-MPXV activity of IFN-I/II in A549, HeLa and Vero-E6 cell lines. IFN-I/II mRNA expression was detected in skin lesions, anal swabs, nasopharyngeal samples and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), with the highest levels in skin lesions (p < 0.05). High MPXV DNA levels in clinical samples were associated with increased IFN-I levels. In vitro, MPXV infection induced a peak of IFN-I between 48 and 72 h post-infection (p < 0.01). Pre-treatment of the A549, HeLa and Vero-E6 cells with high concentrations (≥ 100,000 International Unit, IU/ml) of IFN-α and IFN-ω did not inhibit or had little effect on MPXV replication, while IFN-β moderately reduced MPXV replication by 2.7-1.5 log
