Perspective for Drug Discovery Targeting SARS Coronavirus Methyltransferases: Function, Structure and Inhibition.
Review in Journal of medicinal chemistry, 2024. 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
Severe acute respiratory syndrome-associated coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the causative agent of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), is highly contagious and caused a catastrophic pandemic. It has infected billions of people worldwide with >6 million deaths. With expedited development of effective vaccines and antiviral drugs, there have been significantly reduced SARS-CoV-2 infections and associated mortalities and morbidities. The virus is closely related to SARS-CoV, which emerged in 2003 and infected several thousand people with a higher mortality rate of ∼10%. Because of continued viral evolution and drug-induced resistance, as well as the possibility of a new coronavirus in the future, studies for new therapies are needed. The viral methyltransferases play critical roles in SARS coronavirus replication and are therefore promising drug targets. This review summarizes the function, structure and inhibition of methyltransferases of SARS-CoV-2 and SARS-CoV. Challenges and perspectives of targeting the viral methyltransferases to treat viral infections are discussed.
