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

Nucleosides are highly biologically relevant compounds, and are widely clinically used as drugs for the treatment of virus/bacteria infections and cancers. However, efficient chemical synthesis of nucleoside is highly difficult due to the low reactivity of nucleobases acceptors, challenging the existing synthetic protocols. Here we show an alternative synthetic protocol with judiciously designed o-(tert-butylethynyl)phenyl thioglycosides (BEPTs) as donors. The protocol is featured by stable glycosylation donors and high efficiency, direct glycosylation without the need for preactivation/silylation of nucleobases, broad substrate scope, capacity in furnishing 2-deoxy-nucleosides, cost efficiency, scalability, and significantly improved reaction speed, and exhibits favorable and profound solvent effects for hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP). To check the practicality of the protocol, efficient preparation of angustmycin A and dJ is accomplished. The reaction mechanisms are systematically investigated, providing deep insights to the BEPT protocol.
