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

We calculate the absolute binding free energies of tetra-methylated octa-acids host-guest systems as a part of the SAMPL6 blind challenge (receipt ID vq30p). We employed two different free energy simulation methods, i.e., the umbrella sampling (US) and double decoupling method (DDM). The US method was used with the weighted histogram analysis method (WHAM) (US-WHAM scheme). In the DDM scheme, Hamiltonian replica-exchange method (HREM) was combined with the Bennett acceptance ratio (BAR) (HREM-BAR scheme). We obtained initial binding poses via molecular docking using GalaxyDock-HG program, which is developed for the SAMPL challenge. The root mean square deviation (RMSD) and the mean absolute deviations (MAD) using US-WHAM scheme were 1.33 and 1.02 kcal/mol, respectively. The MAD was the top among all submissions, however the correlation with respect to experiment was unexceptional. While the RMSD and MAD via HREM-BAR scheme were greater than US-WHAM scheme, (i.e., 2.09 and 1.76 kcal/mol), their correlations were slightly better than US-WHAM. The correlation between the two methods was high. Further discussion on the DDM method can be found in a companion paper by Han et al. (receipt ID 3z83m) in the same issue.
