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

For exploration of chemical and biological systems, the combined quantum mechanics and molecular mechanics (QM/MM) and machine learning (ML) models have been developed recently to achieve high accuracy and efficiency for molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Despite its success on reaction free energy calculations, how to identify new configurations on insufficiently sampled regions during MD and how to update the current ML models with the growing database on the fly are both very important but still challenging. In this article, we apply the QM/MM ML method to solvation free energy calculations and address these two challenges. We employ three approaches to detect new data points and introduce the gradient boosting algorithm to reoptimize efficiently the ML model during ML-based MD sampling. The solvation free energy calculations on several typical organic molecules demonstrate that our developed method provides a systematic, robust, and efficient way to explore new chemistry using ML-based QM/MM MD simulations.
