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

Combinatorial peptidomimetic libraries facilitate the economical identification and refinement of lead compounds directed at diverse therapeutic targets. Further development of selection-based approaches to drug discovery utilizing such libraries is impeded, however, both by the slow pace of library generation and by the physical limitations to library diversity inherent to current methods. To overcome these barriers, we describe here the adaptation of peptide flow synthesis technology to the generation of combinatorial libraries. Using a simple and accessible semi-automated flow platform, we demonstrate methods for library synthesis including both canonical and noncanonical amino acid building blocks in a format that quickens the pace of library synthesis from days to < 1 hour per library while permitting individual library size orders of magnitude beyond current approaches up to a physical maximum of 10
