SARS-COV-2 Coronavirus Papain-like Protease PLpro as an Antiviral Target for Inhibitors of Active Site and Protein-Protein Interactions.
Article in Biophysics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The papain-like protease PLpro of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus is a multifunctional enzyme that catalyzes the proteolytic processing of two viral polyproteins, pp1a and pp1ab. PLpro also cleaves peptide bonds between host cell proteins and ubiquitin (or ubiquitin-like proteins), which is associated with a violation of immune processes. Nine structures of the most effective inhibitors of the PLpro active center were prioritized according to the parameters of biochemical (
