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

CYP5122A1, an enzyme involved in sterol biosynthesis in Leishmania, was recently characterized as a sterol C4-methyl oxidase. Screening of a library of compounds against CYP5122A1 and CYP51 from Leishmania resulted in the identification of two structurally related classes of inhibitors of these enzymes. Analogs of screening hit N-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)-4-(pyridin-4-ylmethyl)piperazine-1-carboxamide (4a) were generally strong inhibitors of CYP51 but were less potent against CYP5122A1 and typically displayed weak inhibition of L. donovani promastigote growth. Analogs of screening hit N-(4-(benzyloxy)phenyl)-4-(2-(pyridin-4-yl)ethyl)piperazine-1-carboxamide (18a) were stronger inhibitors of both CYP5122A1 and L. donovani promastigote proliferation but also remained selective for inhibition of CYP51. Two compounds in this series, N-(4-((3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzyl)oxy)phenyl)-4-(2-(pyridin-4-yl)ethyl)piperazine-1-carboxamide (18e) and N-(4-((3,5-di-tert-butylbenzyl)oxy)phenyl)-4-(2-(pyridin-4-yl)ethyl)piperazine-1-carboxamide (18i) showed modest selectivity for inhibiting L. donovani promastigote proliferation compared to J774 macrophages and were effective against intracellular L. donovani with EC
