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

Early quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) technologies have unsatisfactory versatility and accuracy in fields such as drug discovery because they are based on traditional machine learning and interpretive expert features. The development of Big Data and deep learning technologies significantly improve the processing of unstructured data and unleash the great potential of QSAR. Here we discuss the integration of wet experiments (which provide experimental data and reliable verification), molecular dynamics simulation (which provides mechanistic interpretation at the atomic/molecular levels), and machine learning (including deep learning) techniques to improve QSAR models. We first review the history of traditional QSAR and point out its problems. We then propose a better QSAR model characterized by a new iterative framework to integrate machine learning with disparate data input. Finally, we discuss the application of QSAR and machine learning to many practical research fields, including drug development and clinical trials.
