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

Targeting structured RNA elements in the SARS-CoV-2 viral genome with small molecules is an attractive strategy for pharmacological control over viral replication. In this work, we report the discovery of small molecules that target the frameshifting element (FSE) in the SARS-CoV-2 RNA genome using high-throughput small-molecule microarray (SMM) screening. A new class of aminoquinazoline ligands for the SARS-CoV-2 FSE are synthesized and characterized using multiple orthogonal biophysical assays and structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies. This work reveals compounds with mid-micromolar binding affinity (
