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

Deep generative modeling has a strong potential to accelerate drug design. However, existing generative models often face challenges in generalization due to limited data, leading to less innovative designs with often unfavorable interactions for unseen target proteins. To address these issues, we propose an interaction-aware 3D molecular generative framework that enables interaction-guided drug design inside target binding pockets. By leveraging universal patterns of protein-ligand interactions as prior knowledge, our model can achieve high generalizability with limited experimental data. Its performance has been comprehensively assessed by analyzing generated ligands for unseen targets in terms of binding pose stability, affinity, geometric patterns, diversity, and novelty. Moreover, the effective design of potential mutant-selective inhibitors demonstrates the applicability of our approach to structure-based drug design.
