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

backgroundProtein sequence profile-profile alignment is an important approach to recognizing remote homologs and generating accurate pairwise alignments. It plays an important role in protein sequence database search, protein structure prediction, protein function prediction, and phylogenetic analysis.

resultsIn this work, we integrate predicted solvent accessibility, torsion angles and evolutionary residue coupling information with the pairwise Hidden Markov Model (HMM) based profile alignment method to improve profile-profile alignments. The evaluation results demonstrate that adding predicted relative solvent accessibility and torsion angle information improves the accuracy of profile-profile alignments. The evolutionary residue coupling information is helpful in some cases, but its contribution to the improvement is not consistent.

conclusionIncorporating the new structural information such as predicted solvent accessibility and torsion angles into the profile-profile alignment is a useful way to improve pairwise profile-profile alignment methods.
