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

In this work, random forest (RF), support vector machine, k-nearest neighbor and C4.5 decision tree, were used to establish classification models for predicting whether an unknown molecule is an inhibitor of human topoisomerase I (Top1) protein. All these models have achieved satisfactory results, with total prediction accuracies from 89.70% to 97.12%. Through comparative analysis, it can be found that the RF model has the best forecasting effect. The parameters were further optimized to generate the best-performing RF model. At the same time, features selection was implemented to choose properties most relevant to the inhibition of Top1 from 189 molecular descriptors through a special RF procedure. Subsequently, a ligand-based virtual screening was performed from the Maybridge database by the optimal RF model and 596 hits were picked out. Then, 67 molecules with relative probability scores over 0.7 were selected based on the screening results. Next, the 67 molecules above were docked to Top1 using AutoDock Vina. Finally, six top-ranked molecules with binding energies less than -10.0 kcal/mol were screened out and a common backbone, which is entirely different from that of existing Top1 inhibitors reported in the literature, was found.
