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

Background: Pea eggplant ( Method: The SARS-CoV receptor structure files (viral structural components) were retrieved from the Protein Data Bank (PDB) database: membrane protein (PDB ID: 3I6G), main protease (PDB ID: 5RE4), and spike glycoproteins (PDB ID: 6VXX and 6VYB). The receptor binding pocket regions were identified by Discovery Studio (BIOVIA) for targeted docking with TBF polyphenols (genistin, kaempferol, mellein, rhoifolin and scutellarein). The ligand and SARS-CoV family receptor structure files were pre-processed using the AutoDock tools. Molecular docking was performed with the Lamarckian genetic algorithm using AutoDock Vina 4.2 software. The best pose (ligand-receptor complex) from the molecular docking analysis was selected based on the minimum binding energy (MBE) and extent of structural interactions, as indicated by BIOVIA visualization tool. The selected complex was validated by a 100 ns MD simulation run using the GROMACS software. The dynamic behaviour and stability of the receptor-ligand complex were evaluated by the root mean square displacement (RMSD), root mean square fluctuation (RMSF), radius of gyration (Rg), solvent accessible surface area (SASA), solvent accessible surface volume (SASV) and number of hydrogen bonds. Results: At RMSD = 0, the TBF polyphenols showed fairly strong physical interactions with SARS-CoV receptors under all possible combinations. The MBE of TBF polyphenol-bound SARS CoV complexes ranged from -4.6 to -8.3 kcal/mol. Analysis of the structural interactions showed the presence of hydrogen bonds, electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions between the receptor residues (RR) and ligands atoms. Based on the MBE values, the 3I6G-rhoifolin (MBE = -8.3 kcal/mol) and 5RE4-genistin (MBE = -7.6 kcal/mol) complexes were ranked with the least value. However, the latter showed a greater extent of interactions between the RRs and the ligand atoms and thus was further validated by MD simulation. The MD simulation parameters of the 5RE4-genistin complex over a 100 ns run indicated good structural stability with minimal flexibility within genistin binding pocket region. The findings suggest that
