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

Discovery of efficacious antiviral agents targeting SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro) is of the highest importance to fight against COVID-19. Here, we describe a simple protocol for high-throughput screening of Mpro inhibitors using a robust fluorescence polarization (FP) assay. Candidate Mpro inhibitors from large compound libraries could be rapidly identified by monitoring the change of millipolarization unit value. This affordable FP assay can be modified to screen antiviral agents targeting virus protease. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Li et al. (2022), Yan et al. (2021), and Yan et al. (2022c).
