Description: "Graphical summary of hazard ratio lag for replicated associations between viral exposures and neurodegenerative diseases shows increased risk of neurodegeneration even 15 years prior to disease onset. The size of the circle on each line represents relative sample size overlap for the viral exposure and the associated NDD at that time point. The position of the circle on each line denotes the HRs with whiskers showing the 95% CIs represented on a log scaled x axis. The association between Epstein-Barr virus and multiple sclerosis was included at the top as a reference for scale."
