EMCBOW-GPCR: A method for identifying G-protein coupled receptors based on word embedding and wordbooks.
Article in Computational and structural biotechnology journal, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
G Protein-Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) are one of the largest membrane protein receptor family in human, which are also important targets for many drugs. Thence, it's of great significance to judge whether a protein is a GPCR or not. However, identifying GPCRs by experimental methods is very expensive and time-consuming. As more and more GPCR primary sequences are accumulated, it's feasible to develop a computational model to predict GPCRs precisely and quickly. In this paper, a novel method called EMCBOW-GPCR has been proposed to improve the accuracy of identifying GPCRs based on natural language processing (NLP). For representing GPCRs, three word-embedding models and a bag-of-words model are used to extract original features. Then, the original features are thrown into a Deep-learning algorithm to extract features further and reduce the dimension. Finally, the obtained features are fed into Extreme Gradient Boosting. As shown with the results comparison, the overall prediction metrics of EMCBOW-GPCR are higher than the state of the arts. In order to be convenient for more researchers to use EMCBOW-GPCR, the method and source code have been opened in github, which are available at https://github.com/454170054/EMCBOW-GPCR, and a user-friendly web-server for EMCBOW-GPCR has been established at http://www.jci-bioinfo.cn/emcbowgpcr.
