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

Peptide aldehydes are crucial biomolecules essential to various biological systems, driving a continuous demand for efficient synthesis methods. Herein, we develop a metal-free, facile, and biocompatible strategy for direct electrochemical synthesis of unnatural peptide aldehydes. This electro-oxidative approach enabled a step- and atom-economical ring-opening via C‒N bond cleavage, allowing for homoproline-specific peptide diversification and expansion of substrate scope to include amides, esters, and cyclic amines of various sizes. The remarkable efficacy of the electro-synthetic protocol set the stage for the efficient modification and assembly of linear and macrocyclic peptides using a concise synthetic sequence with racemization-free conditions. Moreover, the combination of experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations indicates that different N-acyl groups play a decisive role in the reaction activity.
