A Fluorescence-Polarization-Based Lipopolysaccharide-Caspase-4 Interaction Assay for the Development of Inhibitors.
Article in Molecules (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. 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
Recognition of intracellular lipopolysaccharide (LPS) by Caspase-4 (Casp-4) is critical for host defense against Gram-negative pathogens. LPS binds to the N-terminal caspase activation and recruitment domain (CARD) of procaspase-4, leading to auto-proteolytic activation followed by pro-inflammatory cytokine release and pyroptotic cell death. Aberrant hyper-activation of Casp-4 leads to amplification of the inflammatory response linked to sepsis. While the active site of a caspase has been targeted with peptide inhibitors, inhibition of LPS-Casp-4 interaction is an emerging strategy for the development of selective inhibitors with a new mode of action for treating infectious diseases and sepsis induced by LPS. In this study, a high-throughput screening (HTS) system based on fluorescence polarization (FP) was devised to identify inhibitors of the LPS and Casp-4 interaction. Using HTS and IC
