Metabolically programmed iron chelators.
Article in Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Extensive structure activity relationship (SAR) studies focused on the desferrithiocin [DFT, (S)-4,5-dihydro-2-(3-hydroxy-2-pyridinyl)-4-methyl-4-thiazolecarboxylic acid] pharmacophore have led to three different DFT analogs being evaluated clinically for the treatment of iron overload diseases, for example, thalassemia. The SAR work revealed that the lipophilicity of a ligand, as determined by its partition between octanol and water, logP(app), could have a profound effect on the drug's iron clearing efficiency (ICE), organ distribution, and toxicity profile. While within a given structural family the more lipophilic a chelator the better the ICE, unfortunately, the more lipophilic ligands are often more toxic. Thus, a balance between lipophilicity, ICE, and toxicity must be achieved. In the current study, we introduce the concept of 'metabolically programmed' iron chelators, that is, highly lipophilic, orally absorbable, effective deferration agents which, once absorbed, are quickly converted to their nontoxic, hydrophilic counterparts.
