Discovery of Orally Available Prodrugs of Itaconate and Derivatives.
Article in Journal of medicinal chemistry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Itaconate, an endogenous immunomodulator from the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, shows therapeutic effects in various disease models, but is highly polar with poor cellular permeability. We previously reported a novel, topical itaconate derivative, SCD-153, for the treatment of alopecia areata. Here, we present the discovery of orally available itaconate derivatives for systemic and skin disorders. Four sets of prodrugs were synthesized using pivaloyloxymethyl (POM), isopropyloxycarbonyloxymethyl (POC), (5-methyl-2-oxo-1,3-dioxol-4-yl) methyl (ODOL), and 3-(hexadecyloxy)propyl (HDP) pro-moieties pairing with itaconic acid (IA), 1-methyl itaconate (1-MI), and 4-methyl itaconate (4-MI). Among these, POC-based prodrugs (
