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

purposeTo develop a computational model for predicting CNS drug exposure using a novel in vivo dataset.

methodsThe brain-to-plasma (B:P) ratio of 43 diverse compounds was assessed following intravenous administration to Swiss Outbred mice. B:P ratios were subjected to PLS modeling using calculated molecular descriptors. The obtained results were transferred to a qualitative setting in which compounds predicted to have a B:P ratio > 0.3 were sorted as high CNS exposure compounds and those below this value were sorted as low CNS exposure compounds. The model was challenged with an external test set consisting of 251 compounds for which semi-quantitative values of CNS exposure were available in the literature.

resultsThe dataset ranged more than 1700-fold in B:P ratio, with 16 and 27 compounds being sorted as low and high CNS exposure drugs, respectively. The model was a one principal component model based on five descriptors reflecting molecular shape, electronegativity, polarisability and charge transfer, and allowed 74% of the compounds in the training set and 76% of the test set to be predicted correctly.

conclusionA qualitative computational model has been developed which accurately classifies compounds as being high or low CNS exposure drugs based on rapidly calculated molecular descriptors.
