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

In the past decade or so there has been a dramatic increase in the number of computational applications and tools that have been developed to enable medicinal chemists to prosecute modern drug discovery programs more efficiently. The upsurge of user-friendly, well-designed computational tools that enable structure-based drug design (SBDD) and cheminformatics (CI)-based drug design has equipped the medicinal chemist with an arsenal of tools and applications that significantly augments the entire design process, thereby enhancing the speed and efficiency of the design-make-test-analyze cycle. Modern computational applications and tools transcend all areas of drug discovery, and most savvy medicinal chemists can employ them effectively in a myriad of drug discovery applications. Indeed, the sheer scope and breadth of tools available to the medicinal chemist is vast and, to our knowledge, has not been comprehensively reviewed. In this article we have catalogued many computational tools, platforms, and applications that are currently available, with four main areas highlighted: commercially available tools/platforms, open-source applications, internally developed platforms (software tools developed within a pharma or biotech organization), and artificial intelligence/machine learning-based platforms. For ease of interpretation, for these categories we provide tables organized by vendor or organization name, the name of the application, whether the tool/application is employed predominantly for SBDD or CI-based design, and a summary of the main function of the tools, with associated hyperlinks to vendor Web sites. We have tried to be as comprehensive and as inclusive as possible; however, the pace of development of new and existing tools is so rapid that there may be omissions with respect to newly developed tools and current versions of the software.
