The MAPK Response to Virus Infection Is Modified by Probenecid.
Review in Current issues in molecular biology, 2025. 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
Respiratory viruses such as respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) annually cause respiratory illness, which may result in substantial disease and mortality in susceptible individuals. Viruses exploit host cell machinery for replication, which engages the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) pathway. The MAPK signaling pathways are triggered by pattern recognition receptors that recognize the pathogen, infection, or external stimuli, leading to the induction and regulation of immunity and inflammation. Probenecid, used to improve renal function by inhibiting the tubular reabsorption of uric acid, has been shown to have therapeutic efficacy in reducing inflammation and blocking viral replication by inhibiting components of the MAPK pathway that preclude virus replication. This review summarizes key molecular cascades in the host response to virus recognition, infection, and replication and how this can be altered by probenecid treatment.
