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 glyoxalase-I (GLO-I) enzyme, which is the initial enzyme of the glyoxalase system that is responsible for the detoxification of cytotoxic α-ketoaldehydes, such as methylglyoxal, has been approved as a valid target in cancer therapy. Overexpression of GLO-I has been observed in several types of carcinomas, including breast, colorectal, prostate, and bladder cancer. In this work we aimed to identify potential GLO-I inhibitors via employing different structure-based drug design techniques including structure-based poly-pharmacophore modelling, virtual screening, and molecular docking. Poly-pharmacophore modelling was applied in this study in order to thoroughly explore the binding site of the target enzyme, thereby, revealing hits that could bind in a nonconventional way which can pave the way for designing more potent and selective ligands with novel chemotypes. The modelling phase has resulted in the selection of 31 compounds that were biologically evaluated against human GLO-I enzyme. Among the tested set, seven compounds showed excellent inhibitory activities with IC
