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

The interaction between heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) and Hsp90 co-chaperone cell-division cycle 37 (Cdc37) is crucial for the folding and maturation of several oncogenic proteins, particularly protein kinases. This makes the inhibition of this protein-protein interaction (PPI) an interesting target for developing new anticancer compounds. However, due to the large interaction surface, developing PPI inhibitors is challenging. In this work, we describe the discovery of new Hsp90-Cdc37 PPI inhibitors using a ligand-based virtual screening approach. Initial hit compounds showed Hsp90 binding, resulting in anticancer activity in the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. To optimize their antiproliferative effect, 35 analogs were prepared. Binding affinity for Hsp90 was determined for the most promising compounds, 8c (
