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

Developing an efficient, concise synthesis of the fungal natural product illudalic acid has been a long-standing challenge, made more pressing by the recent discovery that illudalic acid and analogs are selective phosphatase inhibitors. Syntheses of illudalic acid have become progressively more efficient over the decades yet remain strategically grounded in a 17-step synthesis reported in 1977. Here we validate a two-step process-convergent [4 + 2] benzannulation and one-pot coordinated functional group manipulations-for preparing the key trifunctional pharmacophore of illudalic acid. The modular building blocks are readily available in 2-3 steps, for a longest linear sequence (LLS) of 5 steps to illudalic acid from 3,3-dimethylcyclopentanone. A small collection of analogous indanes and tetralins featuring the same pharmacophore were prepared by a similar route. These compounds potently and selectively inhibit the human leukocyte common antigen-related (LAR) subfamily of protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs). Evidence supporting a postulated covalent ligation mechanism is provided herein.
