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

Abnormal protein-membrane attachment is involved in deregulated cellular pathways and in disease. Therefore, the possibility to modulate protein-membrane interactions represents a new promising therapeutic strategy for peripheral membrane proteins that have been considered so far undruggable. A major obstacle in this drug design strategy is that the membrane-binding domains of peripheral membrane proteins are usually unknown. The development of fast and efficient algorithms predicting the protein-membrane interface would shed light into the accessibility of membrane-protein interfaces by drug-like molecules. Herein, we describe an ensemble machine learning methodology and algorithm for predicting membrane-penetrating amino acids. We utilize available experimental data from the literature for training 21 machine learning classifiers and meta-classifiers. Evaluation of the best ensemble classifier model accuracy yields a macro-averaged F1 score = 0.92 and a Matthews correlation coefficient = 0.84 for predicting correctly membrane-penetrating amino acids on unknown proteins of a validation set. The python code for predicting protein-membrane interfaces of peripheral membrane proteins is available at https://github.com/zoecournia/DREAMM.
