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

Rac small GTPases and their GEFs of the DOCK family are pivotal checkpoints in development, autoimmunity and bone homeostasis, and their abnormal regulation is associated to diverse pathologies. Small molecules that inhibit their activities are therefore needed to investigate their functions. Here, we characterized the mechanism of inhibition of human DOCK5 by C21, a small molecule that inhibits mouse Dock5 in cells and blocks bone degradation in mice models of osteoporosis. We showed that the catalytic DHR2 domain of DOCK5 has a high basal GEF activity in the absence of membranes which is not regulated by a simple feedback loop. C21 blocks this activity in a non-competitive manner and is specific for DOCK5. In contrast, another Dock inhibitor, CPYPP, inhibits both DOCK5 and an unrelated GEF, Trio. To gain insight into structural features of the inhibitory mechanism of C21, we used SAXS analysis of DOCK5
