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

Serine/threonine kinase PLK4, a critical regulator of centrosome duplication, is closely associated with tumorigenesis due to its role in centrosome amplification. PLK4 is overexpressed in multiple cancers and has recently emerged as a promising therapeutic target for TRIM37-amplified breast cancer. Developing safe and effective PLK4 inhibitors holds significant therapeutic potential. However, currently reported PLK4 inhibitors face challenges such as limited structural diversity and potential safety concerns. Here, we designed a series of amino-pyrimidine-based PLK4 inhibitors using a structure-activity relationship (SAR)-guided strategy. Half of these compounds exhibited potent PLK4 inhibition (IC
