Control of HSV-1 Infection: Directions for the Development of CRISPR/Cas-Based Therapeutics and Diagnostics.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
It is estimated that nearly all individuals have been infected with herpesviruses, with herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) representing the most prevalent virus. In most cases, HSV-1 causes non-life-threatening skin damage in adults. However, in patients with compromised immune systems, it can cause serious diseases, including death. The situation is further complicated by the emergence of strains that are resistant to both traditional and novel antiviral drugs. It is, therefore, imperative that new methods of combating HSV-1 and other herpesviruses be developed without delay. CRISPR/Cas systems may prove an effective means of controlling herpesvirus infections. This review presents the current understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms of HSV-1 infection and discusses four potential applications of CRISPR/Cas systems in the fight against HSV-1 infections. These include the search for viral and cellular genes that may serve as effective targets, the optimization of anti-HSV-1 activity of CRISPR/Cas systems in vivo, the development of CRISPR/Cas-based HSV-1 diagnostics, and the validation of HSV-1 drug resistance mutations.
