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

Besnoitia besnoiti is an apicomplexan parasite responsible for bovine besnoitiosis, a chronic and debilitating disease that causes systemic and skin manifestations and sterility in bulls. Neither treatments nor vaccines are currently available. In the search for therapeutic candidates, calcium-dependent protein kinases have arisen as promising drug targets in other apicomplexans (e.g. Neospora caninum, Toxoplasma gondii, Plasmodium spp. and Eimeria spp.) and are effectively targeted by bumped kinase inhibitors. In this study, we identified and cloned the gene coding for BbCDPK1. The impact of a library of nine bumped kinase inhibitor analogues on the activity of recombinant BbCDPK1 was assessed by luciferase assay. Afterwards, those were further screened for efficacy against Besnoitiabesnoiti tachyzoites grown in Marc-145 cells. Primary tests at 5µM revealed that eight compounds exhibited more than 90% inhibition of invasion and proliferation. The compounds BKI 1294, 1517, 1553 and 1571 were further characterised, and EC
