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

Cathepsin S (CatS), a member of cysteine cathepsin proteases, has been well studied due to its significant role in many pathological processes, including arthritis, cancer and cardiovascular diseases. CatS inhibitors have been included in D3R-GC3 for both docking pose prediction and affinity ranking, and in D3R-GC4 for binding affinity ranking. The difficulties posed by CatS inhibitors in D3R mainly come from three aspects: large size, high flexibility and similar chemical structures. We have participated in GC4; our best submitted model, which employs a similarity-based alignment docking and Vina scoring protocol, yielded Kendall's τ of 0.23 for 459 binders in GC4. In our further explorations with machine learning, by curating a CatS specific training set, adopting a similarity-based constrained docking method as well as an arm-based fragmentation strategy which can describe large inhibitors in a locality-sensitive fashion, our best structure-based ranking protocol can achieve Kendall's τ of 0.52 for all binders in GC4. In this exploration process, we have demonstrated the importance of training data, docking approaches and fragmentation strategies in inhibitor-ranking protocol development with machine learning.
