Benzoxaboroles are structurally unique binders of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Benzoxaboroles offer unusual reactivity and protein recognition for the development of small molecule drugs. Despite this potential, they are uncommon in drug discovery or in fragment screening libraries. We synthesized a series of structurally related benzoxaboroles containing a diazirine/alkyne tag to enable in-cell photoaffinity labeling experiments. A subset of this library was found to have high selectivity for eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E). The benzoxaborole-eIF4E interaction was found to be stereoselective in nature and competitive with the 7-methylguanosine cap of mRNA. Site of labeling experiments revealed that the benzoxaborole fragment interacts with the cap binding pocket of eIF4E.
