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

Existing elastic network models are typically parametrized at a given cutoff distance and often fail to properly predict the thermal fluctuation of many macromolecules that involve multiple characteristic length scales. We introduce a multiscale flexibility-rigidity index (mFRI) method to resolve this problem. The proposed mFRI utilizes two or three correlation kernels parametrized at different length scales to capture protein interactions at corresponding scales. It is about 20% more accurate than the Gaussian network model (GNM) in the B-factor prediction of a set of 364 proteins. Additionally, the present method is able to deliver accurate predictions for some large macromolecules on which GNM fails to produce accurate predictions. Finally, for a protein of N residues, mFRI is of linear scaling (O(N)) in computational complexity, in contrast to the order of O(N(3)) for GNM.
