Design and bioactivity evaluation of a novel autotaxin inhibitor with anti-hepatic fibrosis effects.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Autotaxin (ATX) is considered as a serum marker of hepatic fibrosis, which is positively correlated with the degree of hepatic fibrosis. However, there are no clinical studies on anti-hepatic fibrosis drugs targeting ATX. This study attempts to find novel ATX small molecule inhibitors based on virtual screening methods including two-dimensional similarity search, pharmacophore screening, molecular docking, drug-like properties and ADMET filtration, combined with biological evaluation. An ATX inhibitor (IC50 = 43.05 µmol/L) is discovered by our screening strategy. In vivo result show that the novel ATX inhibitor represents excellent anti-hepatic fibrosis effects in mice. This screening strategy had potential significance for the discovery of ATX inhibitors in the future.
