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

The papain-like protease (PLpro) of SARS-CoV-2 plays fundamental roles in its replication, and its mechanistic inhibition can impede the virus's replication and infection. Most Plpro inhibitors identified thus far are chemically synthesized and subject to numerous restrictions regarding stability and adverse side effects. Nevertheless, the inhibitors of those compounds can be replaced with natural, selective PLpro inhibitors that are highly stable and have minimal adverse effects. Since ancient times, extracts of
