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

PIGSpro is a significant upgrade of the popular PIGS server for the prediction of the structure of immunoglobulins. The software has been completely rewritten in python following a similar pipeline as in the original method, but including, at various steps, relevant modifications found to improve its prediction accuracy, as demonstrated here. The steps of the pipeline include the selection of the appropriate framework for predicting the conserved regions of the molecule by homology; the target template alignment for this portion of the molecule; the selection of the main chain conformation of the hypervariable loops according to the canonical structure model, the prediction of the third loop of the heavy chain (H3) for which complete canonical structures are not available and the packing of the light and heavy chain if derived from different templates. Each of these steps has been improved including updated methods developed along the years. Last but not least, the user interface has been completely redesigned and an automatic monthly update of the underlying database has been implemented. The method is available as a web server at http://biocomputing.it/pigspro.
