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.
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
A series of 10 cyclic, biaryl analogs of enkephalin, with Tyr or Phe residues at positions 1 and 4, were synthesized according to the Miyaura borylation and Suzuki coupling methodology. Biaryl bridges formed by side chains of the two aromatic amino acid residues are of the meta-meta, meta-para, para-meta, and para-para configuration. Conformational properties of the peptides were studied by CD and NMR. CD studies allowed only to compare conformations of individual peptides while NMR investigations followed by XPLOR calculations provided detailed information on their conformation. Reliability of the XPLOR calculations was confirmed by quantum chemical ones performed for one of the analogs. No intramolecular hydrogen bonds were found in all the peptides. They are folded and adopt the type IV β-turn conformation. Due to a large steric strain, the aromatic carbon atoms forming the biaryl bond are distinctly pyramidalized. Seven of the peptides were tested in vitro for their affinity for the µ-opioid receptor.
