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

Gluco-azoles competitively inhibit glucosidases by transition-state mimicry and their ability to interact with catalytic acid residues in glucosidase active sites. We noted that no azole-type inhibitors described, to date, possess a protic nitrogen characteristic for 1 H-imidazoles. Here, we present gluco-1 H-imidazole, a gluco-azole bearing a 1 H-imidazole fused to a glucopyranose-configured cyclitol core, and three close analogues as new glucosidase inhibitors. All compounds inhibit human retaining β-glucosidase, GBA1, with the most potent ones inhibiting this enzyme (deficient in Gaucher disease) on a par with glucoimidazole. None inhibit glucosylceramide synthase, cytosolic β-glucosidase GBA2 or α-glucosidase GAA. Structural, physical and computational studies provide first insights into the binding mode of this conceptually new class of retaining β-glucosidase inhibitors.
