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

Binding via reversible covalent bond formation presents a novel and powerful mechanism to enhance the potency of synthetic inhibitors for therapeutically important proteins. Work on this front has yielded the anticancer drug bortezomib as well as the antisickling drug voxelotor. However, the rational design of reversible covalent inhibitors remains difficult even when noncovalent inhibitors are available as a scaffold. Herein, we report chemically modified phage libraries, both linear and cyclic, that incorporate 2-acetylphenylboronic acid (APBA) as a warhead to bind lysines via reversible iminoboronate formation. To demonstrate their utility, these APBA-presenting phage libraries were screened against sortase A of
