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

Several computational methods have been developed to predict amyloid propensity of a protein or peptide. These bioinformatics tools are time- and cost-saving alternatives to expensive and laborious experimental methods which are used to confirm self-aggregation of a protein. Computational approaches not only allow preselection of reliable candidates for amyloids but, most importantly, are capable of a thorough and informative analysis of a protein, indicating the sequence determinants of protein aggregation, identifying the potential causal mutations and likely mechanisms. Bioinformatics modeling applies several different approaches, which most typically include physicochemical or structure-based modeling, machine learning, or statistics based modeling. Bioinformatics methods typically use the amino acid sequence of a protein as an input, some also include additional information, for example, an available structure. This chapter describes the methods currently used to computationally predict amyloid propensity of a protein or peptide. Since the accuracy of bioinformatics methods may be highly dependent on reference data used to develop and evaluate the predictors, we also briefly present the main databases of amyloids used by the authors of bioinformatics tools.
