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

Protein-ligand interactions are crucial in drug discovery. Accurately predicting protein-ligand binding affinity is essential for screening potential drugs. Graph neural networks have proven highly effective in modeling spatial relationships and three-dimensional structures within intermolecular. In this paper, we introduce a graph neural network-based model named EIGN to predict protein-ligand binding affinity. The model consists of three main components: the normalized adaptive encoder, the molecular information propagation module, and the output module. Experimental results indicate that EIGN achieves root mean squared error of 1.126 and Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.861 on CASF-2016. Additionally, our model outperforms state-of-the-art methods on CASF-2013, CASF-2016, and the CSAR-NRC set, showing exceptional accuracy and robust generalization ability. To further validate the effectiveness of EIGN, we conducted several experiments, including ablation studies, feature importance analysis, data similarity analysis, and others, to evaluate its performance and applicability.
