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

The α-aminophosphonate UAMC-00050, a newly developed trypsin-like serine protease inhibitor, is a lead compound for the treatment of dry eye syndrome and ocular inflammation. The medicinal chemistry route developed at the University of Antwerp possessed several problems hampering the scale-up such as poor yields for some of the steps, hazardous reagents, and environmental footprint. Herein, we report an optimized route for the UAMC-00050, in which environmental unfriendly solvents were excluded, hazardous reagents were replaced with safer alternatives, and are more efficient in terms of atom economy. Every reaction step was optimized to reach a higher yield, and design of experiment was used to find the optimum conditions in the last step. Furthermore, all the flash chromatography purifications of intermediates were replaced with plug filtration, slurry purifications, or crystallization. The overall yield was increased from 3% in the medicinal chemistry route to 22% in the process development route.
