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

Modern genomics sequencing techniques have provided a massive amount of protein sequences, but experimental endeavor in determining protein structures is largely lagging far behind the vast and unexplored sequences. Apparently, computational biology is playing a more important role in protein structure prediction than ever. Here, we present a system of de novo predictor, termed NiDelta, building on a deep convolutional neural network and statistical potential enabling molecular dynamics simulation for modeling protein tertiary structure. Combining with evolutionary-based residue-contacts, the presented predictor can predict the tertiary structures of a number of target proteins with remarkable accuracy. The proposed approach is demonstrated by calculations on a set of eighteen large proteins from different fold classes. The results show that the ultra-fast molecular dynamics simulation could dramatically reduce the gap between the sequence and its structure at atom level, and it could also present high efficiency in protein structure determination if sparse experimental data is available.
