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

Basic chemometric methods for making empirical regression models for QSPR/QSAR are briefly described from a user's point of view. Emphasis is given to PLS regression, simple variable selection and a careful and cautious evaluation of the performance of PLS models by repeated double cross validation (rdCV). A demonstration example is worked out for QSPR models that predict gas chromatographic retention indices (values between 197 and 504 units) of 209 polycyclic aromatic compounds (PAC) from molecular descriptors generated by Dragon software. Most favorable models were obtained from data sets containing also descriptors from 3D structures with all H-atoms (computed by Corina software), using stepwise variable selection (reducing 2688 descriptors to a subset of 22). The final QSPR model has typical prediction errors for the retention index of ±12 units (95% tolerance interval, for test set objects). Programs and data are provided as supplementary material for the open source R software environment.
