1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Chemical compounds built on a diazepine scaffold have recently emerged as potent inhibitors of the acetyl-lysine binding activity of bromodomain-containing proteins, which is required for gene transcriptional activation in cancer and inflammation. Not only have these chemical compounds validated bromodomains as attractive epigenetic drug targets, but they have also brought to the forefront another application of the diazepine, which had already been regarded as a versatile chemical scaffold in rational drug design. This article reviews the success of diazepine compounds as therapeutic agents and examines the unique chemical and geometric features of this privileged scaffold that make it an excellent template for developing potent and selective molecules that control bromodomain-related gene expression in human diseases.
