Nipah Virus Inhibitor Knowledgebase (NVIK): a combined evidence approach to prioritise small molecule inhibitors.
Article in Journal of cheminformatics, 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
Nipah Virus (NiV) came into limelight due to an outbreak in Kerala, India. NiV infection can cause severe respiratory and neurological problems with fatality rate of 40-70%. It is a public health concern and has the potential to become a global pandemic. Lack of treatment has forced the containment methods to be restricted to isolation and surveillance. WHO's 'R&D Blueprint list of priority diseases' (2018) indicates that there is an urgent need for accelerated research & development for addressing NiV. In the quest for druglike NiV inhibitors (NVIs) a thorough literature search followed by systematic data curation was conducted. Rigorous data analysis was done with curated NVIs for prioritising curated compounds. Our efforts led to the creation of Nipah Virus Inhibitor Knowledgebase (NVIK), a well-curated structured knowledgebase of 220 NVIs with 142 unique small molecule inhibitors. The reported IC50/EC50 values for some of these inhibitors are in the nanomolar range-as low as 0.47 nM. Of 142 unique small-molecule inhibitors, 124 (87.32%) compounds cleared the PAINS filter. The clustering analysis identified more than 90% of the NVIs as singletons signifying their diverse structural features. This diverse chemical space can be utilized in numerous ways to develop druglike anti-nipah molecules. Further, we prioritised top 10 NVIs, based on robustness of assays, physicochemical properties and their toxicity profiles. All the NVIs related information including their structures, physicochemical properties, similarity analysis with FDA approved drugs and other chemical libraries along with predicted ADMET profiles are freely accessible at https://datascience.imtech.res.in/anshu/nipah/ . The NVIK has the provision to submit new inhibitors as and when reported by the community for further enhancement of the NVIs landscape.Scientific contributionThe NVIK is a dedicated resource for NiV drug discovery containing manually curated NVIs. The NVIs are structurally mapped with known chemical space to identify their structural diversity and recommend strategies for chemical library expansion. Also, in NVIK a combined evidence-based strategy is used to prioritise these inhibitors.
