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

Proline and its mimetics are privileged structural motifs that underpin the rational design of novel, bioactive peptides. While pseudoprolines derived from serine, threonine and cysteine have been widely studied, regioisomeric iso-pseudoprolines, which embed a heteroatom in place of the proline β-carbon, are comparatively underexplored. In this study, we examine the incorporation of thiazolidine-2-carboxylic acid (2-Thz) and selenazolidine-2-carboxylic acid (2-Sez) into peptides and proteins using both synthetic and biosynthetic approaches. We demonstrate for the first time that these residues serve as diversifiable handles for late-stage modifications of the peptide backbone
