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

Antioxidant peptides (AOPs) are highly valued in food and pharmaceutical industries due to their significant role in human function. This study introduces a novel approach to identifying robust AOPs using a deep generative model based on sequence representation. Through filtration with a deep-learning classification model and subsequent clustering via the Butina cluster algorithm, twelve peptides (GP1-GP12) with potential antioxidant capacity were predicted. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations guided the selection of six peptides for synthesis and biological experiments. Molecular orbital representations revealed that the HOMO for these peptides is primarily localized on the indole segment, underscoring its pivotal role in antioxidant activity. All six synthesized peptides exhibited antioxidant activity in the DPPH assay, while the hydroxyl radical test showed suboptimal results. A hemolysis assay confirmed the non-hemolytic nature of the generated peptides. Additionally, an in silico investigation explored the potential inhibitory interaction between the peptides and the Keap1 protein. Analysis revealed that ligands GP3, GP4, and GP12 induced significant structural changes in proteins, affecting their stability and flexibility. These findings highlight the capability of machine learning approaches in generating novel antioxidant peptides.
