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

motivationIdentification of functional sites in proteins is essential for functional characterization, variant interpretation and drug design. Several methods are available for predicting either a generic functional site, or specific types of functional site. Here, we present FunSite, a machine learning predictor that identifies catalytic, ligand-binding and protein-protein interaction functional sites using features derived from protein sequence and structure, and evolutionary data from CATH functional families (FunFams).

resultsFunSite's prediction performance was rigorously benchmarked using cross-validation and a holdout dataset. FunSite outperformed other publicly available functional site prediction methods. We show that conserved residues in FunFams are enriched in functional sites. We found FunSite's performance depends greatly on the quality of functional site annotations and the information content of FunFams in the training data. Finally, we analyze which structural and evolutionary features are most predictive for functional sites. AVAILABILITYAND IMPLEMENTATION: https://github.com/UCL/cath-funsite-predictor.
