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

Every year, dengue virus (DENV) causes one hundred million infections worldwide that can result in dengue disease and severe dengue. Two other mosquito-borne flaviviruses, i.e., Zika virus (ZIKV) and West Nile virus (WNV), are responsible of prolonged outbreaks and are associated with severe neurological diseases, congenital defects, and eventually death. These three viruses, despite their importance for global public health, still lack specific drug treatments. Here, we describe the structure-guided discovery of small molecules with pan-flavivirus antiviral potential by a virtual screening of ~1 million structures targeting the NS3-NS5 interaction surface of different flaviviruses. Two molecules inhibited the interaction between DENV NS3 and NS5
