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

Molecules that are able to induce proximity between two proteins are finding ever increasing applications in chemical biology and drug discovery. The ability to introduce an electrophile and make such proximity inducers covalent can offer improved properties such as selectivity, potency, duration of action, and reduced molecular size. This concept has been heavily explored in the context of targeted degradation in particular for bivalent molecules, but recently, additional applications are reported in other contexts, as well as for monovalent molecular glues. This is a comprehensive review of reported covalent proximity inducers, aiming to identify common trends and current gaps in their discovery and application.
