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

β-amyloid cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) is regarded as an important target of drug design toward the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD). In this study, three separate molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and calculations of binding free energies were carried out to comparatively determine the identification mechanism of BACE1 for three inhibitors, 60W, 954 and 60X. The analyses of MD trajectories indicated that the presence of three inhibitors influences the structural stability, flexibility and internal dynamics of BACE1. Binding free energies calculated by using solvated interaction energy (SIE) and molecular mechanics generalized Born surface area (MM-GBSA) methods reveal that the hydrophobic interactions provide decisive forces for inhibitor-BACE1 binding. The calculations of residue-based free energy decomposition suggest that the sidechains of residues L91, D93, S96, V130, Q134, W137, F169 and I179 play key roles in inhibitor-BACE1 binding, which provides a direction for future drug design toward the treatment of AD.
