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

Knowledge of the targets of therapeutic compounds is vital for understanding their action mechanisms and side effects, but such valuable data is seldom available. The multiple complementary techniques needed for comprehensive target characterization must combine data reliability with sufficient analysis throughput. Here, we leveraged the Proteome Integral Solubility Alteration (PISA) assay to characterize the targets of 67 approved and experimental compounds against two main lung cancer subtypes, which is now provided through the website https://thermotargetminer.serve.scilifelab.se/app/thermotargetminer . Novel target candidates (pro-targets) were found for 77% of the tested molecules. Comparison of the protein solubility shifts in lysate vs. living cells highlighted the targets directly interacting with the compounds. We verified that the drug PEITC exerts cytotoxicity through the inhibition of a pro-target PAFAH1B. As PISA is now joining the arsenal of fast and reliable target characterization techniques, the presented database, ThermoTargetMiner, will become a useful resource in lung cancer research.
