A Computational Pipeline to Identify and Characterize Binding Sites and Interacting Chemotypes in SARS-CoV-2.
Article in ACS omega, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Minimizing the human and economic costs of the COVID-19 pandemic and future pandemics requires the ability to develop and deploy effective treatments for novel pathogens as soon as possible after they emerge. To this end, we introduce a new computational pipeline for the rapid identification and characterization of binding sites in viral proteins along with the key chemical features, which we call chemotypes, of the compounds predicted to interact with those same sites. The composition of source organisms for the structural models associated with an individual binding site is used to assess the site's degree of structural conservation across different species, including other viruses and humans. We propose a search strategy for novel therapeutics that involves the selection of molecules preferentially containing the most structurally rich chemotypes identified by our algorithm. While we demonstrate the pipeline on SARS-CoV-2, it is generalizable to any new virus, as long as either experimentally solved structures for its proteins are available or sufficiently accurate predicted structures can be constructed.
