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

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is an important enzyme and target for human therapeutics, environmental safety, and global food supply. Inhibitors of this enzyme are also used for pest elimination and can be misused for suicide or chemical warfare. Adverse effects of AChE pesticides on nontarget organisms, such as fish, amphibians, and humans, have also occurred as a result of biomagnifications of these toxic compounds. We have exhaustively curated the public data for AChE inhibition data and developed machine learning classification models for seven different species. Each set of models were built using up to nine different algorithms for each species and Morgan fingerprints (ECFP6) with an activity cutoff of 1 μM. The human (4075 compounds) and eel (5459 compounds) consensus models predicted AChE inhibition activity using external test sets from literature data with 81% and 82% accuracy, respectively, while the reciprocal cross (76% and 82% percent accuracy) was not species-specific. In addition, we also created machine learning regression models for human and eel AChE inhibition to return a predicted IC
