Novel Competitive, Nonpeptidic, SARS-CoV‑2 M
Article in ACS medicinal chemistry letters, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
In continuation of our previous work wherein we described novel, nonpeptidic competitive inhibitors of the SARS-CoV-2 main protease, we here describe our efforts to improve upon these compounds by improving water solubility and metabolic stability. As predicted by FEP+ solubility studies, disrupting the coplanar arrangement of the aromatic rings led to significantly improved compound aqueous solubility, unfortunately with an unacceptable loss in potency. Attempts to improve compound metabolic stability by avoiding aromatic moieties occupying the S4 pocket, while retaining compound potency by modification of the pyridyl ring occupying the S1 pocket, were also investigated.
