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

TGF-β promotes progression and metastasis in later stages of tumour development, and inhibitors targeting TGF-β or its receptor have faced clinical limitations due to toxicity and poor selectivity. This study aimed to identify novel TGFβR1 inhibitors by screening the ChemDiv database using a structure-based virtual screening approach. Among the top-ranked compounds, 3282-0487 showed the highest potency. Its analogues were further evaluated, leading to four potent TGFβR1 inhibitors with sub-micromolar IC
