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
Leukocyte antigen-related (LAR) phosphatase is a receptor-type protein tyrosine phosphatase involved in cellular signaling and associated with human disease including cancer and metabolic disorders. Selective inhibition of LAR phosphatase activity by well characterized and well validated small molecules would provide key insights into the roles of LAR phosphatase in health and disease, but identifying selective inhibitors of LAR phosphatase activity has been challenging. Recently, we described potent and selective inhibition of LAR phosphatase activity by the fungal natural product illudalic acid. Here we provide a detailed biochemical characterization of the adduct formed between LAR phosphatase and illudalic acid. A mass spectrometric analysis indicates that two cysteine residues are covalently labeled by illudalic acid and a related analog. Mutational analysis supports the hypothesis that inhibition of LAR phosphatase activity is due primarily to the adduct with the catalytic cysteine residue. A computational study suggests potential interactions between the illudalic acid moiety and the enzyme active site. Taken together, these data offer novel insights into the mechanism of inhibition of LAR phosphatase activity by illudalic acid.
