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 COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need for the rapid development of antiviral therapies. Viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RdRp) are promising targets, and numerous virtual screenings for potential inhibitors were conducted without validation of the identified hits. Here we have tested a set of presumed RdRp inhibitors in biochemical assays based on fluorometric detection of RdRp activity or on the electrophoretic separation or RdRp products. We find that fluorometric detection of RdRp activity is unreliable as a screening method because many small compounds interfere with fluorophore binding to dsRNA, and this effect is enhanced by the Mg
