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

Fenofibrate, an anti-hyperlipidemic drug and its phase-I biotransformed metabolite fenofibric acid, was studied for COX-1 (PDB ID: 3N8Y) and COX-2 (PDB ID: 1PXX) inhibition potentials in silico and in vitro for their effects on human recombinant COX-2 enzyme isolated from a Baculovirus expression system in sf21 cells (EC 1.14.99.1) using a conventional spectrophotometric assay. Furthermore, the compounds were also screened for their anti-inflammatory potentials in vivo using carrageenan-induced paw oedema method in Wistar rats. The test compounds fenofibric acid, fenofibrate, and the standard drug diclofenac exhibited binding energies of - 9.0, - 7.2, and - 8.0 kcal mol
