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

The recently crystallized structure of microsomal prostaglandin E2 synthase 1 (mPGES-1) in complex with the inhibitor LVJ (PDB code: 4BPM) offered new structural information for the optimization of the previously identified lead compound 1 (IC50 = 4.16 ± 0.47 μM), which contains the privileged dihydropyrimidin-2-one chemical core. Systematic optimization of 1, through accurate structure-based design, provided compound 4 with a 10-fold improved mPGES-1 inhibitory activity (IC50 = 0.41 ± 0.02 μM). Here we highlight the optimal scaffold decoration pattern of 4 and propose a three-dimensional model for the interaction with this complex trimeric membrane protein. The reported computational insights, together with the accessible one-pot synthetic procedure, stimulate for the generation of further potent dihydropyrimidine-based mPGES-1 inhibitors.
