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

Ensuring that computationally designed molecules are chemically reasonable is at best cumbersome. We present a molecule correction algorithm that morphs invalid molecular graphs into structurally related valid analogs. The algorithm is implemented as a tree search, guided by a set of policies to minimize its cost. We showcase how the algorithm can be applied to molecular design, either as a post-processing step or as an integral part of molecule generators.
