Oncovirus classification and insights into herpes simplex virus, Varicella-Zoster virus.
Article in Cancer cell international, 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
Even though the paper entitled: The role of oncolytic virotherapy and viral oncogenes in the cancer stem cells: a review of virus in cancer stem cells" provides informative details regarding viral contribution in cancer biology, its classification of Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) and Varicella-Zoster Virus (VZV) as oncoviruses is inaccurate.Current evidence demonstrates that while HSV and VZV may reactivate in immunocompromised cancer patients, there is no causative relationship between these two viruses and oncogenesis. It is necessary to make a distinction between cancer-inducing viruses and reactivated viruses due to immune suppression among cancer patients.
