The Impact of Oncogenic Viruses on Cancer Development: A Narrative Review.
Review in Biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Oncogenic viruses are infectious agents that can cause cancer in humans and animals. They are estimated to be responsible for approximately 12% of human cancers worldwide. These viruses trigger a series of mechanisms that allow them to insert their genetic material into host cells, disrupting normal cellular processes and leading to uncontrolled growth and tumor formation. This article reviews the literature on the main oncogenic viruses and reports on newly identified viruses potentially associated with cancer development, addressing the mechanisms of oncogenesis and the types of cancers associated. In addition, the article brings together the evidence for preventive strategies, such as vaccination, and therapeutic advances in combating oncogenic viral infections. This review discusses the role of early detection and treatment in managing virus-related cancers globally. This article reviews current prevention and treatment strategies, including HPV and HBV vaccines and antiviral therapies, and mentions future approaches like immunotherapies and CRISPR/Cas9. Therefore, this article underscores the importance of studying the dynamics of co-infection and the role of human microbiota in viral persistence and carcinogenesis, which opens new possibilities for combination therapies and microbiome-based interventions to slow the progression of viral-related tumors.
