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

Drug discovery is costly and time consuming, and modern drug discovery endeavors are progressively reliant on computational methodologies, aiming to mitigate temporal and financial expenditures associated with the process. In particular, the time required for vaccine and drug discovery is prolonged during emergency situations such as the coronavirus 2019 pandemic. Recently, the performance of deep learning methods in drug virtual screening has been particularly prominent. It has become a concern for researchers how to summarize the existing deep learning in drug virtual screening, select different models for different drug screening problems, exploit the advantages of deep learning models, and further improve the capability of deep learning in drug virtual screening. This review first introduces the basic concepts of drug virtual screening, common datasets, and data representation methods. Then, large numbers of common deep learning methods for drug virtual screening are compared and analyzed. In addition, a dataset of different sizes is constructed independently to evaluate the performance of each deep learning model for the difficult problem of large-scale ligand virtual screening. Finally, the existing challenges and future directions in the field of virtual screening are presented.
