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

Designing and developing inhibitors against the epigenetic target DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) is an attractive strategy in epigenetic drug discovery. DNMT1 is one of the epigenetic enzymes with significant clinical relevance. Structure-based de novo design is a drug discovery strategy that was used in combination with similarity searching to identify a novel DNMT inhibitor with a novel chemical scaffold and warrants further exploration. This study aimed to continue exploring the potential of de novo design to build epigenetic-focused libraries targeted toward DNMT1. Herein, we report the results of an in-depth and critical comparison of ligand- and structure-based de novo design of screening libraries focused on DNMT1. The newly designed chemical libraries focused on DNMT1 are freely available on GitHub.
