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

Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) has emerged as a promising cancer therapeutic target due to its role in the initiation of cap-dependent translation, a process that is accelerated during tumorigenesis. To regulate the initiation of cap-dependent translation, eIF4E participates in protein-protein interactions (PPI) with binding partners, 4E-BP1 and eIF4G, which act as an inhibitor and stimulator of translation, respectively. As both of these proteins interact with eIF4E by utilizing a short, α-helical stretch of amino acids, our laboratory has been working to develop helical mimetics of these proteins, in particular 4E-BP1, to inhibit eIF4E PPIs. Herein, we describe our continued efforts in this area and report the development and characterization of a cell-penetrant lactam stapled peptide for targeting cellular eIF4E.
