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

motivationNeoantigens, derived from somatic mutations in cancer cells, can elicit anti-tumor immune responses when presented to autologous T cells by human leukocyte antigen. Identifying immunogenic neoantigens is crucial for cancer immunotherapy development. However, the accuracy of current bioinformatic methods remains unsatisfactory. Surface and structural features of peptide-HLA class I (pHLA-I) complexes offer valuable insight into the immunogenicity of neoantigens.

resultsWe present NeoaPred, a deep-learning framework for neoantigen prediction. NeoaPred accurately constructs pHLA-I complex structures, with 82.37% of the predicted structures showing an RMSD of < 1 Å. Using these structures, NeoaPred integrates differences in surface, structural, and atom group features between the mutant peptide and its wild-type counterpart to predict a foreignness score. This foreignness score is an effective factor for neoantigen prediction, achieving an AUROC (Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve) of 0.81 and an AUPRC (Area Under the Precision-Recall Curve) of 0.54 in the test set, outperforming existing methods. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: The source code is released under an Apache v2.0 license and is available at the GitHub repository (https://github.com/Dulab2020/NeoaPred).
