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

Ligand docking into homology models of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is a widely used approach in computational compound screening. The generation of "double-hypothetical" models of ligand-target complexes has intrinsic accuracy limitations that further complicate compound ranking and selection compared to those of X-ray structures. Given these uncertainties, we have explored "fuzzy 3D similarity" between hypothetical binding modes of known ligands in homology models and docking poses of database compounds as an alternative to conventional scoring schemes. Therefore, GPCR homology models at varying accuracy levels were generated and used for docking. Increases in recall performance were observed for fuzzy 3D similarity ranking using single or multiple ligand poses compared to that of conventional scoring functions and interaction fingerprints. Fuzzy similarity ranking was also successfully applied to docking into an external model of a GPCR for which no experimental structure is currently available. Taken together, our results indicate that the use of putative ligand poses, albeit approximate at best, increases the odds of identifying active compounds in docking screens of GPCR homology models.
