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

Cancer remains one of the most formidable challenges to human health; hence, developing effective treatments is critical for saving lives. An important strategy involves reactivating tumor suppressor genes, particularly p53, by targeting their negative regulator MDM2, which is essential in promoting cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Leveraging a drug repurposing approach, we screened over 24,000 clinically tested molecules to identify new MDM2 inhibitors. A key innovation of this work is the development and application of a selective cleaning algorithm that systematically filters assay data to mitigate noise and inconsistencies inherent in large-scale bioactivity datasets. This approach significantly improved the predictive accuracy of our machine learning model for pIC
