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

Small molecule activators of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), hereafter SMAPs, have attracted substantial interest, for their potential to inhibit cancer cell proliferation by targeting PR65, the scaffold subunit of the PP2A heterotrimer. PR65 is a uniquely flexible and stable molecule composed of 15 tandem HEAT (Huntingtin, Elongation factor 3-PP2A-TOR1) repeats. We characterized the binding sites and interactions of two SMAPs ATUX-8385 and DT-061 with PR65 and evaluated effects on PR65 structural dynamics using docking and molecular dynamics simulations. We initiated SMAP-bound PR65 simulations starting from two binding sites: S1, determined by cryo-electron microscopy for DT-061 bound to PP2A, on the inner helices of the HEAT repeats 2 and 3 (2
