SCHOOL of nature: ligand-independent immunomodulatory peptides.
Article in Drug discovery today, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
Groundbreaking studies in protein biophysics have identified the mechanisms of transmembrane signaling at the level of druggable protein-protein interactions (PPIs). This resulted in the development of the signaling chain homooligomerization (SCHOOL) strategy to modulate cell responses using receptor-specific peptides. Inspired by nature, these short peptides use ligand-independent mechanisms of receptor inhibition and demonstrate potent efficacy in vitro and in vivo. The SCHOOL strategy is especially important when receptor ligands are unknown. An example is the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) receptor, an emerging therapeutic target involved in the pathogenesis of most inflammatory diseases. Here, I discuss advances in the field with a focus on TREM-1 inhibitory SCHOOL peptides that offer new hope for a 'magic bullet' cure for cancer, arthritis, sepsis, retinopathy, and other medical challenges.
