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

Boronic acids have been typecast as moieties for covalent complexation and are employed only rarely as agents for non-covalent recognition. By exploiting the profuse ability of a boronic acid group to form hydrogen bonds, we have developed an inhibitor of HIV-1 protease with extraordinary affinity. Specifically, we find that replacing an aniline moiety in darunavir with a phenylboronic acid leads to 20-fold greater affinity for the protease. X-ray crystallography demonstrates that the boronic acid group participates in three hydrogen bonds, more than the amino group of darunavir or any other analog. Importantly, the boronic acid maintains its hydrogen bonds and its affinity for the drug-resistant D30N variant of HIV-1 protease. The BOH···OC hydrogen bonds between the boronic acid hydroxy group and Asp30 (or Asn30) of the protease are short ( r
