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

We present a method to rapidly identify hydrogen-mediated interactions in proteins (e.g., hydrogen bonds, hydrogen bonds, water-mediated hydrogen bonds, salt bridges, and aromatic π-hydrogen interactions) through heavy atom geometry alone, that is, without needing to explicitly determine hydrogen atom positions using either experimental or theoretical methods. By including specific real (or virtual) partner atoms as defined by the atom type of both the donor and acceptor heavy atoms, a set of unique angles can be rapidly calculated. By comparing the distance between the donor and the acceptor and these unique angles to the statistical preferences observed in the Protein Data Bank (PDB), we were able to identify a set of conserved geometries (15 for donor atoms and 7 for acceptor atoms) for hydrogen-mediated interactions in proteins. This set of identified interactions includes every polar atom type present in the Protein Data Bank except OE1 (glutamate/glutamine sidechain) and a clear geometric preference for the methionine sulfur atom (SD) to act as a hydrogen bond acceptor. This method could be readily applied to protein design efforts.
