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

Gaussian accelerated molecular dynamics (GaMD) is a computational technique that provides both unconstrained enhanced sampling and free energy calculations of biomolecules. Here, we present the implementation of GaMD in the OpenMM simulation package and validate it on model systems of alanine dipeptide and RNA folding. For alanine dipeptide, 30 ns GaMD production simulations reproduced free energy profiles of 1000 ns conventional molecular dynamics (cMD) simulations. In addition, GaMD simulations captured the folding pathways of three hyperstable RNA tetraloops (UUCG, GCAA, and CUUG) and binding of the rbt203 ligand to the HIV-1 Tar RNA, both of which involved critical electrostatic interactions such as hydrogen bonding and base stacking. Together with previous implementations, GaMD in OpenMM will allow for wider applications in simulations of proteins, RNA, and other biomolecules.
