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

Interactions between proteins and their ligands, such as small molecules, other proteins, and DNA, depend on specific interatomic interactions that can be classified on the basis of atom type and distance and angle constraints. Visualisation of these interactions provides insights into the nature of molecular recognition events and has practical uses in guiding drug design and understanding the structural and functional impacts of mutations. We present Arpeggio, a web server for calculating interactions within and between proteins and protein, DNA, or small-molecule ligands, including van der Waals', ionic, carbonyl, metal, hydrophobic, and halogen bond contacts, and hydrogen bonds and specific atom-aromatic ring (cation-π, donor-π, halogen-π, and carbon-π) and aromatic ring-aromatic ring (π-π) interactions, within user-submitted macromolecule structures. PyMOL session files can be downloaded, allowing high-quality publication images of the interactions to be generated. Arpeggio is implemented in Python and available as a user-friendly web interface at http://structure.bioc.cam.ac.uk/arpeggio/ and as a downloadable package at https://bitbucket.org/harryjubb/arpeggio.
