Revisiting the halogen bonding between phosphodiesterase type 5 and its inhibitors.
Article in Journal of molecular modeling, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Halogenated ligands are nowadays commonly designed in order to increase their potency against protein targets. Although novel computational methods of evaluating the affinity of such halogenated inhibitors have emerged, they still lack the sufficient accuracy, which is especially noticeable in the case of empirical scoring functions, being the method of choice in the drug design process. Here, we evaluated a series of halogenated inhibitors of phosphodiesterase type 5 with ab initio methods, revealing the physical nature of ligand binding and determining the components of interaction energy that are essential for proper inhibitor ranking. In particular, a nonempirical scoring model combining long-range contributions to the interaction energy provided a significant correlation with experimental binding potency, outperforming a number of commonly used empirical scoring functions. Considering the low computational cost associated with remarkable predictive abilities of the aforementioned model, it could be used for rapid assessment of the ligand affinity in the process of rational design of novel halogenated compounds.
