Abstract

SEVERAL drugs that inhibit the replication of herpesvirus in vitro are now being evaluated for the prevention or treatment of infections with herpes simplex virus and varicella zoster virus.1 2 3 Two of these drugs, acyclovir or 9-[(2-hydroxyethoxy)-methyl]guanine and the thymidine analogue E-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2′deoxyuridine (BVDU), are the most efficient inhibitors of herpes simplex virus Type 1 plaque formation yet described.4 5 6 To inhibit the growth of herpes simplex virus and presumably that of varicella zoster virus, acyclovir and BVDU must first be phosphorylated to the respective monophosphates by virus-specified thymidine kinase and must then be converted by cellular enzymes to the respective triphosphates, . . .

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
