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

Class B G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are notoriously difficult to target by small molecules because their large orthosteric peptide-binding pocket embedded deep within the transmembrane domain limits the identification and development of nonpeptide small molecule ligands. Using the parathyroid hormone type 1 receptor (PTHR) as a prototypic class B GPCR target, and a combination of molecular dynamics simulations and elastic network model-based methods, we demonstrate that PTHR druggability can be effectively addressed. Here we found a key mechanical site that modulates the collective dynamics of the receptor and used this ensemble of PTHR conformers to identify selective small molecules with strong negative allosteric and biased properties for PTHR signaling in cell and PTH actions in vivo. This study provides a computational pipeline to detect precise druggable sites and identify allosteric modulators of PTHR signaling that could be extended to GPCRs to expedite discoveries of small molecules as novel therapeutic candidates.
