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

Computational protein design can generate proteins not found in nature that adopt desired structures and perform novel functions. Although proteins could, in theory, be designed with ab initio methods, practical success has come from using large amounts of data that describe the sequences, structures, and functions of existing proteins and their variants. We present recent creative uses of multiple-sequence alignments, protein structures, and high-throughput functional assays in computational protein design. Approaches range from enhancing structure-based design with experimental data to building regression models to training deep neural nets that generate novel sequences. Looking ahead, deep learning will be increasingly important for maximizing the value of data for protein design.
