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

EM-Fold was used to build models for nine proteins in the maps of GroEL (7.7 Å resolution) and ribosome (6.4 Å resolution) in the ab initio modeling category of the 2010 cryo-electron microscopy modeling challenge. EM-Fold assembles predicted secondary structure elements (SSEs) into regions of the density map that were identified to correspond to either α-helices or β-strands. The assembly uses a Monte Carlo algorithm where loop closure, density-SSE length agreement, and strength of connecting density between SSEs are evaluated. Top-scoring models are refined by translating, rotating, and bending SSEs to yield better agreement with the density map. EM-Fold produces models that contain backbone atoms within SSEs only. The RMSD values of the models with respect to native range from 2.4 to 3.5 Å for six of the nine proteins. EM-Fold failed to predict the correct topology in three cases. Subsequently, Rosetta was used to build loops and side chains for the very best scoring models after EM-Fold refinement. The refinement within Rosetta's force field is driven by a density agreement score that calculates a cross-correlation between a density map simulated from the model and the experimental density map. All-atom RMSDs as low as 3.4 Å are achieved in favorable cases. Values above 10.0 Å are observed for two proteins with low overall content of secondary structure and hence particularly complex loop modeling problems. RMSDs over residues in secondary structure elements range from 2.5 to 4.8 Å.
