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

Because of the complicated multistep nature of many biocatalytic reactions, an a priori definition of reaction coordinates is difficult. Therefore, we apply enhanced sampling algorithms along with adaptive path collective variables (PCVs), which converge to the minimum free energy path (MFEP) during the simulation. We show how PCVs can be combined with the highly efficient well-tempered metadynamics extended-system adaptive biasing force (WTM-eABF) hybrid sampling algorithm, offering dramatically increased sampling efficiency due to its fast adaptation to path updates. For this purpose, we address discontinuities of PCVs that can arise due to path shortcutting or path updates with a novel stabilization algorithm for extended-system methods. In addition, we show how the convergence of simulations can be further accelerated by utilizing the multistate Bennett's acceptance ratio (MBAR) estimator. These methods are applied to the first step of the enzymatic reaction mechanism of pseudouridine synthases, where the ability of path WTM-eABF to efficiently explore intricate molecular transitions is demonstrated.
