Complementary Dual Approach for In Silico Target Identification of Potential Pharmaceutical Compounds in Cystic Fibrosis.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease caused by mutation of the CFTR gene, which encodes a chloride and bicarbonate transporter in epithelial cells. Due to the vast range of geno- and phenotypes, it is difficult to find causative treatments; however, small-molecule therapeutics have been clinically approved in the last decade. Still, the search for novel therapeutics is ongoing, and thousands of compounds are being tested in different assays, often leaving their mechanism of action unknown. Here, we bring together a CFTR-specific compound database (CandActCFTR) and systems biology model (CFTR Lifecycle Map) to identify the targets of the most promising compounds. We use a dual inverse screening approach, where we employ target- and ligand-based methods to suggest targets of 309 active compounds in the database amongst 90 protein targets from the systems biology model. Overall, we identified 1038 potential target-compound pairings and were able to suggest targets for all 309 active compounds in the database.
