LigPath: a module for predictive calculation of a ligand's pathway into a receptor-application to the gpH1-receptor.
Article in Journal of molecular modeling, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Until now, the access of ligands into the binding pocket of a G-protein coupled receptor has scarcely been studied using molecular-modeling techniques because of the lack of sufficient algorithms. Neither with Monte-Carlo- nor with Molecular Dynamics Simulations can the penetration of a ligand into the binding pocket of a receptor be calculated because of the excessive amount of computing time needed. Therefore, a new algorithm LigPath for approximate calculation of a ligand's pathway into the binding pocket has been developed. This new algorithm is based on a linkage of directional guiding of the ligand, Monte-Carlo-Search and minimization. In order to evaluate the performance of the algorithm, the guinea-pig histamine H(1) receptor was investigated in combination with one of its potent agonists, histaprodifen, which is proposed to bind in a pocket deep between the transmembrane helices of the receptor. Our calculations show that the amino acids Tyr194, Phe193, Phe436 and Phe433 guide the positively charged histaprodifen from the extracellular part of the receptor into the binding pocket.
