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

abstractQuantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) parameters are good indicators for the reactivity of direct-acting antiviral drugs. Since molecular structure is related to molecular function, careful selection of molecular substitutions will result in more drugs that are potent. In this work, QSAR parameters are selected in order to compare the four drugs used as nucleotide inhibitors (NIs) for non-structural 5B (NS5B) RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) of hepatitis C virus (HCV). These drugs are: ribavirin (widely used over the last 20 years), sofosbuvir (approved on December 2013 by FDA), and finally IDX-184 and R7128 (phase IIb of clinical trial drugs). The nucleotide analogues uracil (U), guanine (G), and cytosine (C) from which these drugs are fabricated are also compared to that group of drugs. QSAR parameters suggested that the drug IDX-184 is the best among all of the studied NIs. It also shows that NIs are always more reactive than their parent nucleotide.
