Aromatic clusters in protein-protein and protein-drug complexes.
Article in Journal of cheminformatics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 38 papers.
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.
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
Aromatic rings are important residues for biological interactions and appear to a large extent as part of protein-drug and protein-protein interactions. They are relevant for both protein stability and molecular recognition processes due to their natural occurrence in aromatic aminoacids (Trp, Phe, Tyr and His) as well as in designed drugs since they are believed to contribute to optimizing both affinity and specificity of drug-like molecules. Despite the mentioned relevance, the impact of aromatic clusters on protein-protein and protein-drug complexes is still poorly characterized, especially in those that go beyond a dimer. In this work, we studied protein-drug and protein-protein complexes and systematically analyzed the presence and structure of their aromatic clusters. Our results show that aromatic clusters are highly prevalent in both protein-protein and protein-drug complexes, and suggest that protein-protein aromatic clusters have idealized interactions, probably because they were optimized by evolution, as compared to protein-drug clusters that were manually designed. Interestingly, the configuration, solvent accessibility and secondary structure of aromatic residues in protein-drug complexes shed light on the relation between these properties and compound affinity, allowing researchers to better design new molecules.
