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

The Zika virus has recently become a subject of acute interest after the discovery of the link between viral infection and microcephaly in infants. Though a number of treatments are under active investigation, there are currently no approved treatments for the disease. To address this critical need, we screened more than 7 million compounds targeting the NS2B-NS3 protease in an attempt to identify promising inhibitor candidates. Starting with commercially and freely available compounds, we identified six hits utilizing an exhaustive consensus screening protocol, followed by molecular dynamics simulation and binding energy estimation using MM/GBSA and MM/PBSA methods. These compounds feature a variety of cores and functionalities, and all are predicted to have good pharmacokinetic profiles, making them promising candidates for screening assays. Graphical abstract Virtual screen of potential Zika virus NS2B-NS3 protease inhibitors.
