The effect of metalloprotein inhibitors on cellular metal ion content and distribution.
Article in Metallomics : integrated biometal science, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
With metalloproteins garnering increased interest as therapeutic targets, designing target-specific metalloprotein inhibitors (MPi) is of substantial importance. However, in many respects, the development and evaluation of MPi lags behind that of conventional small molecule therapeutics. Core concerns around MPi, such as target selectivity and potential disruption of metal ion homeostasis linger. Herein, we used a suite of analytical methods, including energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES), and synchrotron X-ray fluorescence microscopy (SXRF) to investigate the effect of several MPi on cellular metal ion distribution and homeostasis. The results reveal that at therapeutically relevant concentrations, the tested MPi have no significant effects on cellular metal ion content or distribution. In addition, the affinity of the metal-binding pharmacophore (MBP) utilized by the MPi does not have a substantial influence on the effect of the MPi on cellular metal distribution. These studies provide an important, original data set indicating that metal ion homeostasis is not notably perturbed by MPi, which should encourage the development of and aid in designing new MPi, guide MBP selection, and clarify the effect of MPi on the 'metallome'.
