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

Recent progress in coarse-grained (CG) molecular modeling and simulation has facilitated an influx of computational studies on biological macromolecules and their complexes. Given the large separation of length-scales and time-scales that dictate macromolecular biophysics, CG modeling and simulation are well-suited to bridge the microscopic and mesoscopic or macroscopic details observed from all-atom molecular simulations and experiments, respectively. In this review, we first summarize recent innovations in the development of CG models, which broadly include structure-based, knowledge-based, and dynamics-based approaches. We then discuss recent applications of different classes of CG models to explore various macromolecular complexes. Finally, we conclude with an outlook for the future in this ever-growing field of biomolecular modeling.
