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

Peptides are promising drug development frameworks that have been hindered by intrinsic undesired properties including hemolytic activity. We aim to get a better insight into the chemical space of hemolytic peptides using a novel approach based on network science and data mining. Metadata networks (METNs) were useful to characterize and find general patterns associated with hemolytic peptides, whereas Half-Space Proximal Networks (HSPNs), represented the hemolytic peptide space. The best candidate HSPNs were used to extract various subsets of hemolytic peptides (scaffolds) considering network centrality and peptide similarity. These scaffolds have been proved to be useful in developing robust similarity-based model classifiers. Finally, using an alignment-free approach, we reported 47 putative hemolytic motifs, which can be used as toxic signatures when developing novel peptide-based drugs. We provided evidence that the number of hemolytic motifs in a sequence might be related to the likelihood of being hemolytic.
