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

The epitope is the site where antigens and antibodies interact and is vital to understanding the immune system. Experimental identification of linear B-cell epitopes (BCEs) is expensive, is labor-consuming, and has a low throughput. Although a few computational methods have been proposed to address this challenge, there is still a long way to go for practical applications. We proposed a deep learning method called DeepLBCEPred for predicting linear BCEs, which consists of bi-directional long short-term memory (Bi-LSTM), feed-forward attention, and multi-scale convolutional neural networks (CNNs). We extensively tested the performance of DeepLBCEPred through cross-validation and independent tests on training and two testing datasets. The empirical results showed that the DeepLBCEPred obtained state-of-the-art performance. We also investigated the contribution of different deep learning elements to recognize linear BCEs. In addition, we have developed a user-friendly web application for linear BCEs prediction, which is freely available for all scientific researchers at: http://www.biolscience.cn/DeepLBCEPred/.
