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

Lead generation is a crucial process in drug discovery, and the identification of druglike lead compounds is essential to increase the chances of success in this field. Orally available hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors have been a new treatment for renal anemia in chronic kidney disease patients. In our journey to enarodustat, approved in Japan, China, and South Korea, we adopted a pharmacophore-based scaffold-hopping strategy from binding mode analysis of known inhibitors. During the search for lead compounds, cell permeability was found to be a key factor in cell activity. Therefore, membrane permeability, ligand efficiency, and lipophilic ligand efficiency were utilized as compasses for the lead generation. We successfully identified compound
