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

Erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular receptor A2 (EphA2), is a receptor tyrosine kinase involved in cell-cell interactions. It is known to be overexpressed in various tumors and is associated with poor prognosis. EphA2 has been proposed as a target for theranostic applications. Low molecular weight peptide-based scaffolds with low nanomolar affinities have been shown to be ideal in such applications. Bicyclic peptides have emerged as an alternative to traditional peptides for this purpose, offering affinities comparable to antibodies due to their constrained nature, along with high tissue penetration, and improved stability compared to linear counterparts. This study presents the development and comprehensive
