Review in ACS applied bio materials, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Initially part of the field of artificial intelligence, machine learning (ML) has become a booming research area since branching out into its own field in the 1990s. After three decades of refinement, ML algorithms have accelerated scientific developments across a variety of research topics. The field of small molecule design is no exception, and an increasing number of researchers are applying ML techniques in their pursuit of discovering, generating, and optimizing small molecule compounds. The goal of this review is to provide simple, yet descriptive, explanations of some of the most commonly utilized ML algorithms in the field of small molecule design along with those that are highly applicable to an experimentally focused audience. The algorithms discussed here span across three ML paradigms: supervised learning, unsupervised learning, and ensemble methods. Examples from the published literature will be provided for each algorithm. Some common pitfalls of applying ML to biological and chemical data sets will also be explained, alongside a brief summary of a few more advanced paradigms, including reinforcement learning and semi-supervised learning.
