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

backgroundVisualization of large molecular datasets is a challenging yet important topic utilised in diverse fields of chemistry ranging from material engineering to drug design. Especially in drug design, modern methods of high-throughput screening generate large amounts of molecular data that call for methods enabling their analysis. One such method is classification of compounds based on their molecular scaffolds, a concept widely used by medicinal chemists to group molecules of similar properties. This classification can then be utilized for intuitive visualization of compounds.

resultsIn this paper, we propose a scaffold hierarchy as a result of large-scale analysis of the PubChem Compound database. The analysis not only provided insights into scaffold diversity of the PubChem Compound database, but also enables scaffold-based hierarchical visualization of user compound data sets on the background of empirical chemical space, as defined by the PubChem data, or on the background of any other user-defined data set. The visualization is performed by a web based client-server application called Scaffvis. It provides an interactive zoomable tree map visualization of data sets up to hundreds of thousands molecules. Scaffvis is free to use and its source codes have been published under an open source license.Graphical abstract.
