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

(+)-Negamycin (1), a natural dipeptidic antibiotic bearing a hydrazide structure, exhibits a readthrough activity toward the nonsense mutation of the dystrophin gene and restores dystrophin expression in muscles of Duchenne muscular dystrophy model mdx mice. Herein to develop more potent readthrough compounds, we performed a structure-activity relationship (SAR) study of 3-epi-deoxynegamycin (2), which is also another natural readthrough compound with little antimicrobial activity, focusing on the main carbon chain length. We found that one carbon atom shorter derivative 9b shows a higher readthrough activity than 1 and 2. Further derivatization at the carboxylic acid part of 9b demonstrates that its meta-chlorobenzyl ester derivative 17e, which has a higher ClogP value, exhibits a more potent readthrough activity than 9b. Interestingly, in the cell-free protein expression system, the readthrough activity of 17e drastically decreases compared to that in the cell-based assay. These results suggest that benzyl ester-type derivatives enhance the hydrophobicity and function as prodrugs to produce active compound 9b in living cell systems.
