Age Matters: Key Contributors to Interferon Toxicity in Infants During Influenza Virus Infection.
Review in Viruses, 2025. 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
Respiratory viral infections are a leading cause of early childhood hospitalizations in the United States. Neonatal immune responses are reliant on innate mechanisms during the first few months of life. Interferons (IFNs) are a key component of this response. These antiviral cytokines are produced early in infection and aid in viral control and clearance. Although generally considered protective in the setting of respiratory viral infections, the recent literature has suggested that IFNs may exacerbate disease. In the process of promoting an antiviral environment, IFNs impede cell proliferation, contribute to pulmonary barrier disruption, and generate reactive oxygen species. This is not tolerated in the rapidly developing neonatal lung. Therefore, IFNs contribute to pathogenesis in the influenza-infected neonate. This review focuses on the potential mechanisms that drive IFN-induced toxicity in neonates and prospective therapeutics to mitigate this toxicity.
