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

summaryThe identification and characterization of interfaces in protein complexes is crucial for understanding the mechanisms of molecular recognition. These interfaces are also attractive targets for protein inhibition. However, targeting protein interfaces can be challenging for large interfaces that consist of multiple interacting regions. We present PICKLUSTER [Protein Interface C(K)luster]-a program for identifying "sub-interfaces" in protein-protein complexes using distance clustering. The division of the interface into smaller "sub-interfaces" offers a more focused approach for targeting protein-protein interfaces. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: PICKLUSTER is implemented as a plug-in for the molecular visualization program UCSF ChimeraX 1.4 and subsequent versions. It is freely available for download in the ChimeraX Toolshed and https://gitlab.com/topf-lab/pickluster.git.
