Prediction and analysis of antifreeze proteins.
Article in Heliyon, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Antifreeze proteins (AFPs) are proteins that protect cellular fluids and body fluids from freezing by inhibiting the nucleation and growth of ice crystals and preventing ice recrystallization, thereby contributing to the maintenance of life in living organisms. They exist in fish, insects, microorganisms, and fungi. However, the number of known AFPs is currently limited, and it is essential to construct a reliable dataset of AFPs and develop a bioinformatics tool to predict AFPs. In this work, we first collected AFPs sequences from UniProtKB considering the reliability of annotations and, based on these datasets, developed a prediction system using random forest. We achieved accuracies of 0.961 and 0.947 for non-redundant sequences with less than 90% and 30% identities and achieved the accuracy of 0.953 for representative sequences for each species. Using the ability of random forest, we identified the sequence features that contributed to the prediction. Some sequence features were common to AFPs from different species. These features include the Cys content, Ala-Ala content, Trp-Gly content, and the amino acids' distribution related to the disorder propensity. The computer program and the dataset developed in this work are available from the GitHub site: https://github.com/ryomiya/Prediction-and-analysis-of-antifreeze-proteins.
