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

Shape similarity searching is a popular approach for ligand-based virtual screening on the basis of three-dimensional reference compounds. It is generally thought that well-defined experimentally determined binding modes of active reference compounds provide the best possible basis for shape searching. Herein, we show that experimental binding modes are not essential for successful shape similarity searching. Furthermore, we show that ensembles of analogs of X-ray ligands-in the absence of these ligands-further improve the search performance of single crystallographic reference compounds. This is even the case if ensembles of virtually generated analogs are used whose activity status is unknown. Taken together, the results of our study indicate that analog ensembles representing fuzzy reference states are effective starting points for shape similarity searching.
