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

Mimicking bioactive conformations of peptide segments involved in the formation of protein-protein interfaces with small molecules is thought to represent a promising strategy for the design of protein-protein interaction (PPI) inhibitors. For compound design, the use of three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds rich in sp3-centers makes it possible to precisely mimic bioactive peptide conformations. Herein, we introduce DeepCubist, a molecular generator for designing peptidomimetics based on 3D scaffolds. Firstly, enumerated 3D scaffolds are superposed on a target peptide conformation to identify a preferred template structure for designing peptidomimetics. Secondly, heteroatoms and unsaturated bonds are introduced into the template via a deep generative model to produce candidate compounds. DeepCubist was applied to design peptidomimetics of exemplary peptide turn, helix, and loop structures in pharmaceutical targets engaging in PPIs.
