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

RNA is a complex macromolecule that plays central roles in the cell. While it is well known that its structure is directly related to its functions, understanding and predicting RNA structures is challenging. Assessing the real or predictive quality of a structure is also at stake with the complex 3D possible conformations of RNAs. Metrics have been developed to measure model quality while scoring functions aim at assigning quality to guide the discrimination of structures without a known and solved reference. Throughout the years, many metrics and scoring functions have been developed, and no unique assessment is used nowadays. Each developed assessment method has its specificity and might be complementary to understanding structure quality. Therefore, to evaluate RNA 3D structure predictions, it would be important to calculate different metrics and/or scoring functions. For this purpose, we developed RNAdvisor, a comprehensive automated software that integrates and enhances the accessibility of existing metrics and scoring functions. In this paper, we present our RNAdvisor tool, as well as state-of-the-art existing metrics, scoring functions and a set of benchmarks we conducted for evaluating them.
