Host Genetic Susceptibility and Antiviral Immunity Shape the Pathogenesis and Outcomes of Herpes Simplex Encephalitis.
Review in Biology, 2026. 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
Herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE), predominantly caused by herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), is the most common sporadic viral encephalitis worldwide and remains life threatening despite antiviral therapy. Although herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection is highly prevalent, only a minority of individuals develop HSE, highlighting the critical contribution of host-specific factors to disease susceptibility. This review summarizes current knowledge regarding HSE epidemiology, antiviral immunity, genetic susceptibility, and therapeutic advances. Underlying inborn errors of immunity fall into three mechanistic groups: impaired innate immune sensing pathways, including Toll-like receptor 3 (
