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

Modeling the binding pose of an antibody is a prerequisite to structure-based affinity maturation and design. Without knowing a reliable binding pose, the subsequent structural simulation is largely futile. In this study, we have developed a method of machine learning-guided re-ranking of antigen binding poses of nanobodies, the single-domain antibody which has drawn much interest recently in antibody drug development. We performed a large-scale self-docking experiment of nanobody-antigen complexes. By training a decision tree classifier through mapping a feature set consisting of energy, contact and interface property descriptors to a measure of their docking quality of the refined poses, significant improvement in the median ranking of native-like nanobody poses by was achieved eightfold compared with ClusPro and an established deep 3D CNN classifier of native protein-protein interaction. We further interpreted our model by identifying features that showed relatively important contributions to the prediction performance. This study demonstrated a useful method in improving our current ability in pose prediction of nanobodies.
