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

Molecular dynamics is a powerful tool for studying the thermodynamics and kinetics of complex molecular events. However, these simulations can rarely sample the required time scales in practice. Transition path sampling overcomes this limitation by collecting unbiased trajectories and capturing the relevant events. Moreover, the integration of machine learning can boost the sampling while simultaneously learning a quantitative representation of the mechanism. Still, the resulting trajectories are by construction non-Boltzmann-distributed, preventing the calculation of free energies and rates. We developed an algorithm to approximate the equilibrium path ensemble from machine-learning-guided path sampling data. At the same time, our algorithm provides efficient sampling, mechanism, free energy, and rates of rare molecular events at a very moderate computational cost. We tested the method on the folding of the mini-protein chignolin. Our algorithm is straightforward and data-efficient, opening the door to applications in many challenging molecular systems.
