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

This chapter describes two computational methods for PDZ-peptide binding: high-throughput computational protein design (CPD) and a medium-throughput approach combining molecular dynamics for conformational sampling with a Poisson-Boltzmann (PB) Linear Interaction Energy for scoring. A new CPD method is outlined, which uses adaptive Monte Carlo simulations to efficiently sample peptide variants that tightly bind a PDZ domain, and provides at the same time precise estimates of their relative binding free energies. A detailed protocol is described based on the Proteus CPD software. The medium-throughput approach can be performed with standard MD and PB software, such as NAMD and Charmm. For 40 complexes between Tiam1 and peptide ligands, it gave high a2ccuracy, with mean errors of around 0.5 kcal/mol for relative binding free energies and no large errors. It requires a moderate amount of parameter fitting before it can be applied, and its transferability to other protein families is still untested.
