HSPMdb: a computational repository of heat shock protein modulators.
Article in Database : the journal of biological databases and curation, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Heat shock proteins (Hsp) are among highly conserved proteins across all domains of life. Though originally discovered as a cellular response to stress, these proteins are also involved in a wide range of cellular functions such as protein refolding, protein trafficking and cellular signalling. A large number of potential Hsp modulators are under clinical trials against various human diseases. As the number of modulators targeting Hsps is growing, there is a need to develop a comprehensive knowledge repository of these findings which is largely scattered. We have thus developed a web-accessible database, HSPMdb, which is a first of its kind manually curated repository of experimentally validated Hsp modulators (activators and inhibitors). The data was collected from 176 research articles and current version of HSPMdb holds 10 223 entries of compounds that are known to modulate activities of five major Hsps (Hsp100, Hsp90, Hsp70, Hsp60 and Hsp40) originated from 15 different organisms (i.e. human, yeast, bacteria, virus, mouse, rat, bovine, porcine, canine, chicken, Trypanosoma brucei and Plasmodium falciparum). HSPMdb provides comprehensive information on biological activities as well as the chemical properties of Hsp modulators. The biological activities of modulators are presented as enzymatic activity and cellular activity. Under the enzymatic activity field, parameters such as IC50, EC50, DC50, Ki and KD have been provided. In the cellular activity field, complete information on cellular activities (percentage cell growth inhibition, EC50 and GI50), type of cell viability assays and cell line used has been provided. One of the important features of HSPMdb is that it allows users to screen whether or not their compound of interest has any similarity with the previously known Hsp modulators. We anticipate that HSPMdb would become a valuable resource for the broader scientific community working in the area of chaperone biology and protein misfolding diseases.
