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

Despite its central role in structure based drug design the determination of the binding mode (position, orientation and conformation in addition to protonation and tautomeric states) of small heteromolecular ligands in protein:ligand complexes based on medium resolution X-ray diffraction data is highly challenging. In this perspective we demonstrate how a combination of molecular dynamics simulations and free energy (FE) calculations can be used to correct and identify thermodynamically stable binding modes of ligands in X-ray crystal complexes. The consequences of inappropriate ligand structure, force field and the absence of electrostatics during X-ray refinement are highlighted. The implications of such uncertainties and errors for the validation of virtual screening and fragment-based drug design based on high throughput X-ray crystallography are discussed with possible solutions and guidelines.
