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

We disclose a practical catalytic method for arming bioactive amide-based natural products and other small-molecule drugs with various functional handles for the synthesis of drug conjugates. We demonstrate that a set of readily available Sc-based Lewis acids and N-based Brønsted bases can function cooperatively to deprotonate amide N-H bonds in polyfunctional drug molecules. An aza-Michael reaction between the resulting amidate and α,β-unsaturated compounds produces an array of drug analogues that are equipped with an alkyne, azide, maleimide, tetrazine, or diazirine moiety under redox and pH-neutral conditions. The utility of this chemical tagging strategy is showcased through the production of drug conjugates by the click reaction between the alkyne-tagged drug derivatives and an azide-containing green fluorescent protein, nanobody, or antibody.
