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

The structural modeling of peptides can be a useful aid in the discovery of new drugs and a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms of life. Here we present a novel multiscale protocol for the structure prediction of linear and cyclic peptides. The protocol combines two main stages: coarse-grained simulations using the CABS-flex standalone package and an all-atom reconstruction-optimization process using the Modeller program. We evaluated the protocol on a set of linear peptides and two sets of cyclic peptides, with cyclization through the backbone and disulfide bonds. A comparison with other state-of-the-art tools (APPTEST, PEP-FOLD, ESMFold and AlphaFold implementation in ColabFold) shows that for most cases, AlphaFold offers the highest resolution. However, CABS-flex is competitive, particularly when it comes to short linear peptides. As demonstrated, the protocol performance can be further improved by combination with the residue-residue contact prediction method or more efficient scoring. The protocol is included in the CABS-flex standalone package along with online documentation to aid users in predicting the structure of peptides and mini-proteins.
