Deceiving the gatekeepers: virus modulation of gap junctions.
Review in Microbiology and molecular biology reviews : MMBR, 2025. 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
SUMMARYGap junctions (GJs) are specialized intercellular channels that mediate the direct exchange of ions, metabolites, and signaling molecules between adjacent cells, playing essential roles in tissue homeostasis and immune coordination. Their function is tightly controlled by connexin isoform composition, trafficking and turnover, and post-translational modifications, particularly phosphorylation and ubiquitination. This review synthesizes current knowledge on the diverse strategies employed by DNA and RNA viruses, including members of the
