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

Bioreversible protein esterification is a simple, customizable, and traceless strategy for the exogenous delivery of proteins into mammalian cells. Enabling this protein delivery strategy are α-aryl-α-diazoamides bearing a tolyl moiety. The aqueous solubility of the ensuing esterified protein is, however, often compromised, which can result in the loss of soluble esterified protein for downstream applications. Here, we undertook a structure-activity relationship campaign to generate hydrophilic diazoamides for use as protein esterification and cellular delivery agents. We find that the careful adjustment of the hydrogen-bond basicity of α-aryl-α-diazoamides is sufficient to engender soluble esterified proteins, as high hydrogen-bond basicity correlates with high aqueous solubility. Importantly, enhancing aqueous solubility of diazoamides should proceed
