Scipion-Chem: An Open Platform for Virtual Drug Screening.
Article in Journal of chemical information and modeling, 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
Virtual drug screening (VDS) tackles the problem of drug discovery by computationally reducing the number of potential pharmacological molecules that need to be tested experimentally to find a new drug. To do so, several approaches have been developed through the years, typically focusing on either the physicochemical characteristics of the receptor structure (structure-based virtual screening) or those of the potential ligands (ligand-based virtual screening). Scipion is a workflow engine well suited for structural studies of biological macromolecules. Here, we present Scipion-chem, a new branch oriented to VDS. A total of 11 plugins have already been integrated from the most common programs used in the field. They can be used through the Scipion graphical user interface to execute and analyze typical VDS tasks. In addition, we have developed several consensus protocols that combine results from the different integrated programs to generate more robust predictions. Backstage, Scipion also facilitates the interoperability of those different software packages while tracking all of the intermediate files, parameters, and user decisions. In summary, in this article, we present Scipion-chem. This accessible, interoperable, and traceable platform provides the user with all of the tools to carry out a successful VDS workflow. Scipion-chem is openly available at https://github.com/scipion-chem.
