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

Significant research progress has been made in the field of protein structure and fitness prediction. Particularly, single-sequence-based structure prediction methods like ESMFold and OmegaFold achieve a balance between inference speed and prediction accuracy, showing promise for many downstream prediction tasks. Here, we propose SPIRED, a single-sequence-based structure prediction model that exhibits comparable performance to the state-of-the-art methods but with approximately 5-fold acceleration in inference and at least one order of magnitude reduction in training consumption. By integrating SPIRED with downstream neural networks, we compose an end-to-end framework named SPIRED-Fitness for the rapid prediction of both protein structure and fitness from single sequence with satisfactory accuracy. Moreover, SPIRED-Stab, the derivative of SPIRED-Fitness, achieves state-of-the-art performance in predicting the mutational effects on protein stability.
