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

Traditional drug discovery effectively contributes to the treatment of many diseases but is limited by high costs and long cycles. Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) methods were introduced to evaluate the activity of compounds virtually, which saves the significant cost of determining the activities of the compounds experimentally. Over the past two decades, many web tools for QSAR modeling with various features have been developed to facilitate the usage of QSAR methods. These web tools significantly reduce the difficulty of using QSAR and indirectly promote drug discovery. However, there are few comprehensive summaries of these QSAR tools, and researchers may have difficulty determining which tool to use. Hence, we systematically surveyed the mainstream web tools for QSAR modeling. This work may guide researchers in choosing appropriate web tools for developing QSAR models, and may also help develop more bioinformatics tools based on these existing resources. For nonprofessionals, we also hope to make more people aware of QSAR methods and expand their use.
