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

This study aimed to identify potential BCL-2 small molecule inhibitors using deep neural networks (DNN) and random forest (RF), algorithms as well as molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to screen a library of small molecules. The RF model classified 61% (2355/3867) of molecules as 'Active'. Further analysis through molecular docking with Vina identified CHEMBL3940231, CHEMBL3938023, and CHEMBL3947358 as top-scored small molecules with docking scores of -11, -10.9, and 10.8 kcal/mol, respectively. MD simulations validated these compounds' stability and binding affinity to the BCL2 protein.
