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

The identification of drug-target interactions (DTIs) is a critical step in drug development. Experimental methods that are based on clinical trials to discover DTIs are time-consuming, expensive, and challenging. Therefore, as complementary to it, developing new computational methods for predicting novel DTI is of great significance with regards to saving cost and shortening the development period. In this paper, we present a novel computational model for predicting DTIs, which uses the sequence information of proteins and a rotation forest classifier. Specifically, all of the target protein sequences are first converted to a position-specific scoring matrix (PSSM) to retain evolutionary information. We then use local phase quantization (LPQ) descriptors to extract evolutionary information in the PSSM. On the other hand, substructure fingerprint information is utilized to extract the features of the drug. We finally combine the features of drugs and protein together to represent features of each drug-target pair and use a rotation forest classifier to calculate the scores of interaction possibility, for a global DTI prediction. The experimental results indicate that the proposed model is effective, achieving average accuracies of 89.15%, 86.01%, 82.20%, and 71.67% on four datasets (i.e., enzyme, ion channel, G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR), and nuclear receptor), respectively. In addition, we compared the prediction performance of the rotation forest classifier with another popular classifier, support vector machine, on the same dataset. Several types of methods previously proposed are also implemented on the same datasets for performance comparison. The comparison results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method to the others. We anticipate that the proposed method can be used as an effective tool for predicting drug-target interactions on a large scale, given the information of protein sequences and drug fingerprints.
