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

To improve the reliability of virtual screening for transforming growth factor-beta type 1 receptor (TβR1) inhibitors, 2 docking methods and 11 scoring functions in Discovery Studio software were evaluated and validated in this study. LibDock and CDOCKER protocols were performed on a test set of 24 TβR1 protein-ligand complexes. Based on the root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) values (in Å) between the docking poses and co-crystal conformations, the CDOCKER protocol can be efficiently applied to obtain more accurate dockings in medium-size virtual screening experiments of TβR1, with a successful docking rate of 95%. A dataset including 281 known active and 8677 inactive ligands was used to determine the best scoring function. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to compare the performance of scoring functions in attributing best scores to active than inactive ligands. The results show that Ludi 1, PMF, Ludi 2, Ludi 3, PMF04, PLP1, PLP2, LigScore2, Jain and LigScore1 are better scoring functions than the random distribution model, with AUC of 0.864, 0.856, 0.842, 0.812, 0.776, 0.774, 0.769, 0.762, 0.697 and 0.660, respectively. Based on the pairwise comparison of ROC curves, Ludi 1 and PMF were chosen as the best scoring functions for virtual screening of TβR1 inhibitors. Further enrichment factors (EF) analysis also supports PMF and Ludi 1 as the top two scoring functions.
