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

Nucleic acid electron density interpretation after phasing by molecular replacement or other methods remains a difficult problem for computer programs to deal with. Programs tend to rely on time-consuming and computationally exhaustive searches to recognise characteristic features. We present NucleoFind, a deep-learning-based approach to interpreting and segmenting electron density. Using an electron density map from X-ray crystallography obtained after molecular replacement, the positions of the phosphate group, sugar ring and nitrogenous base group can be predicted with high accuracy. On average, 78% of phosphate atoms, 85% of sugar atoms and 83% of base atoms are positioned in predicted density after giving NucleoFind maps produced following successful molecular replacement. NucleoFind can use the wealth of context these predicted maps provide to build more accurate and complete nucleic acid models automatically.
