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

Peptidomimetics are emerging as a promising class of potent and selective therapeutics. Among the current approaches to these compounds, the utilization of constrained lactams is a key element in enforcing the active peptide conformation, and the development of efficient and stereocontrolled methods for generating such lactam building blocks is an important objective. Current methods typically rely on the elaboration of existing α-amino acids, and in so doing, the side chain is sacrificed during the ring-forming process. We report a new asymmetric approach to lactam-constrained α-amino acid building blocks bearing a range of polar and hydrophobic side chains. The chemistry is amenable to rapidly generating di- and tripeptides, and the potential for these lactams to stabilize type II β-turns is demonstrated in the synthesis of the melanocyte-inhibiting factor peptidomimetic.
