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

Allosteric inhibitors of glutaminase (GAC), such as BPTES, CB-839 and UPGL00019, have great promise as inhibitors of cancer cell growth, but potent inhibitors with drug-like qualities have been difficult to achieve. Here, a small library of GAC inhibitors based on the UPGL00019 core is described. This set of derivatives was designed to assess if one or both of the phenylacetyl groups flanking the UPGL00019 core can be replaced by smaller simple aliphatic acyl groups without loss in potency. We found that one of the phenylacetyl moieties can be replaced by a set of small aliphatic moieties without loss in potency. We also found that enzymatic potency co-varies with the VDW volume or the maximum projection area of the groups used as replacements of the phenylacetyl moiety and used literature X-ray data to provide an explanation for this finding.
