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

Lead optimization is a crucial step in the drug discovery process, which aims to design potential drug candidates from biologically active hits. During lead optimization, active hits undergo modifications to improve their absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity (ADMET) profiles. Medicinal chemists face key questions regarding which compound(s) should be synthesized next and how to balance multiple ADMET properties. Reliable transformation rules from multiple experimental analyses are critical to improve this decision-making process. We developed OptADMET ( https://cadd.nscc-tj.cn/deploy/optadmet/ ), an integrated web-based platform that provides chemical transformation rules for 32 ADMET properties and leverages prior experimental data for lead optimization. The multiproperty transformation rule database contains a total of 41,779 validated transformation rules generated from the analysis of 177,191 reliable experimental datasets. Additionally, 146,450 rules were generated by analyzing 239,194 molecular data predictions. OptADMET provides the ADMET profiles of all optimized molecules from the queried molecule and enables the prediction of desirable substructure transformations and subsequent validation of drug candidates. OptADMET is based on matched molecular pairs analysis derived from synthetic chemistry, thus providing improved practicality over other methods. OptADMET is designed for use by both experimental and computational scientists.
