Modulation of co-stimulatory signal from CD2-CD58 proteins by a grafted peptide.
Article in Chemical biology & drug design, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Peptides were designed to inhibit the protein-protein interaction of CD2 and CD58 to modulate the immune response. This work involved the design and synthesis of eight different peptides by replacing each amino acid residue in peptide 6 with alanine as well as grafting the peptide to the sunflower trypsin-inhibitor framework. From the alanine scanning studies, mutation at position 2 of the peptide was shown to result in increased potency to inhibit cell adhesion interactions. The most potent peptide from the alanine scanning was further studied for its detailed three-dimensional structure and binding to CD58 protein using surface plasmon resonance and flow cytometry. This peptide was used to graft to the sunflower trypsin inhibitor to improve the stability of the peptide. The grafted peptide, SFTI-a1, was further studied for its potency as well as its thermal, chemical, and enzymatic stability. The grafted peptide exhibited improved activity compared to our previously grafted peptide and was stable against thermal and enzymatic degradation.
