MolViewSpec: a Mol* extension for describing and sharing molecular visualizations.
Article in Nucleic acids research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Data visualization is a pivotal component of a structural biologist's arsenal. The Mol* Viewer makes molecular visualizations available to broader audiences via most web browsers. While Mol* provides a wide range of functionality, it has a steep learning curve and is only available via a JavaScript interface. To enhance the accessibility and usability of web-based molecular visualization, we introduce MolViewSpec (molstar.org/mol-view-spec), a standardized approach for defining molecular visualizations that decouples the definition of complex molecular scenes from their rendering. Scene definition can include references to commonly used structural, volumetric, and annotation data formats together with a description of how the data should be visualized and paired with optional annotations specifying colors, labels, measurements, and custom 3D geometries. Developed as an open standard, this solution paves the way for broader interoperability and support across different programming languages and molecular viewers, enabling more streamlined, standardized, and reproducible visual molecular analyses. MolViewSpec is freely available as a Mol* extension and a standalone Python package.
