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

Structurally complex polyketide natural products, isolated from a variety of marine and terrestrial sources, continue to provide a valuable source of rewarding targets for the synthetic chemist to tackle. In this account, we provide an overview of the total synthesis of several structurally fascinating polyketides with promising anticancer activity completed in our group based on our versatile asymmetric aldol methodology-spirastrellolide A methyl ester, leiodermatolide, rhizopodin and chivosazole F-and highlight the unanticipated challenges and discoveries encountered.
