Disseminated herpes simplex virus infection in pregnancy
Article in Biomedica : revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2024. 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
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) types 1 and 2 produce the most common sexually transmitted infection in women, with a higher incidence reported in developing countries. When the first infection occurs during the perinatal period, it can spread, resulting in high morbidity and mortality of the mother and child, in addition to mainly neurological sequelae in the newborn. Despite having reliable laboratory tests, the diagnosis of herpes simplex virus infection in this population is complex since the clinical presentation ranges from asymptomatic or with non-specific symptoms without lesions on the skin or mucous membranes. For this reason, a high clinical suspicion is necessary. Here, we present the case of a mother with disseminated herpes simplex virus type 2 infection with viral hepatitis and fetal death, highlighting the importance of suspecting the diagnosis in febrile women with systemic compromise during the perinatal period, even in the absence of rash.
