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

Current fragment-based drug design relies on the efficient exploration of chemical space by using structurally diverse libraries of small fragments. However, structurally dissimilar compounds can exploit the same interactions and thus be functionally similar. Using three-dimensional structures of many fragments bound to multiple targets, we examined if a better strategy for selecting fragments for screening libraries exists. We show that structurally diverse fragments can be described as functionally redundant, often making the same interactions. Ranking fragments by the number of novel interactions they made, we show that functionally diverse selections of fragments substantially increase the amount of information recovered for unseen targets compared to the amounts recovered by other methods of selection. Using these results, we design small functionally efficient libraries that can give significantly more information about new protein targets than similarly sized structurally diverse libraries. By covering more functional space, we can generate more diverse sets of drug leads.
