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

Targeting the N-terminal phosphatase domain of soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) could potentially represent a pharmacological strategy for treatment of cardiometabolic diseases. However, development of chemical tools to investigate the therapeutic potential of sEH phosphatase (sEH-P) inhibition has proven challenging due to varying activities between different species isoforms and lack of selectivity toward the C-terminal hydrolase domain, which exhibits the epoxide hydrolase activity (sEH-H). Herein, we describe the fragment-based discovery of FZ581 (49), an sEH-P inhibitor against human, rat, and mouse isoforms. In vivo studies with this compound in mice and rats demonstrated a significant increase of main sEH-P substrate levels without affecting plasma levels of sEH-H substrates. Altogether, we provide a pan-species sEH-P inhibitor to study the pharmacotherapeutic potential of sEH-P inhibition.
