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

lazar is a new tool for the prediction of toxic properties of chemical structures. It derives predictions for query structures from a database with experimentally determined toxicity data. lazar generates predictions by searching the database for compounds that are similar with respect to a given toxic activity and calculating the prediction from their activities. Apart form the prediction, lazar provides the rationales (structural features and similar compounds) for the prediction and a reliable condence index that indicates, if a query structure falls within the applicability domain of the training database.Leave-one-out (LOO) crossvalidation experiments were carried out for 10 carcinogenicity endpoints ({female/male} {hamster/mouse/rat} carcinogenicity and aggregate endpoints {hamster/mouse/rat} carcinogenicity and rodent carcinogenicity) and Salmonella mutagenicity from the Carcinogenic Potency Database (CPDB). An external validation of Salmonella mutagenicity predictions was performed with a dataset of 3895 structures. Leave-one-out and external validation experiments indicate that Salmonella mutagenicity can be predicted with 85% accuracy for compounds within the applicability domain of the CPDB. The LOO accuracy of lazar predictions of rodent carcinogenicity is 86%, the accuracies for other carcinogenicity endpoints vary between 78 and 95% for structures within the applicability domain.
