Discovery and Optimization of a Novel Series of Competitive and Central Nervous System-Penetrant Protease-Activated Receptor 4 (PAR4) Inhibitors.
Article in ACS chemical neuroscience, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The detailed pharmacology and therapeutic potential of the central PAR4 receptors are poorly understood due to a lack of potent, selective, and brain-penetrant tool compounds. Despite this, robust data with biochemical and genetic tools show the therapeutic potential of PAR4 antagonists in traumatic brain injury, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and other neurodegenerative disorders with a neuroinflammatory component. Thus, we performed a functional HTS campaign, identified a fundamentally new PAR4 competitive inhibitor chemotype, optimized this new series (increased potency >45-fold), discovered enantiospecific activity (though opposing preference for human versus mouse PAR4), and engendered high central nervous system penetration (rat
