Fragment-Based Discovery of Drug-like LRH-1 Agonists.
Article in ACS medicinal chemistry letters, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The phospholipid sensing transcription factor liver receptor homologue 1 (LRH-1) participates in the transcriptional regulation of metabolic balance and inflammation in liver, pancreas, and other tissues. It is an emerging target for metabolic dysfunction, fatty liver disease, and cancer, but LRH-1 modulators are rare and lack drug-like properties. We discovered new LRH-1 ligands with improved physicochemical features in a fragment-based approach and optimized a venlafaxine-related lead for LRH-1 activation. Despite a strict structure-activity relationship, systematic structural variation resulted in a new LRH-1 agonist scaffold with strong activation efficacy, validated direct and cellular target engagement, and anti-inflammatory and ER-stress-resolving properties in functional cellular settings.
