High-Throughput Screening Reveals New Glutaminase Inhibitor Molecules.
Article in ACS pharmacology & translational science, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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 glutaminase (GLS) enzyme hydrolyzes glutamine into glutamate, an important anaplerotic source for the tricarboxylic acid cycle in rapidly growing cancer cells under the Warburg effect. Glutamine-derived α-ketoglutarate is also an important cofactor of chromatin-modifying enzymes, and through epigenetic changes, it keeps cancer cells in an undifferentiated state. Moreover, glutamate is an important neurotransmitter, and deregulated glutaminase activity in the nervous system underlies several neurological disorders. Given the proven importance of glutaminase for critical diseases, we describe the development of a new coupled enzyme-based fluorescent glutaminase activity assay formatted for 384-well plates for high-throughput screening (HTS) of glutaminase inhibitors. We applied the new methodology to screen a ∼30,000-compound library to search for GLS inhibitors. The HTS assay identified 11 glutaminase inhibitors as hits that were characterized by
