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

We present CGeNArateWeb, a new web tool for the three-dimensional simulation of naked DNA and protein-bound chromatin fibers. The server allows the user to obtain a dynamic representation of long segments of linear, circular, or protein-DNA segments thanks to a Langevin dynamics coarse-grained (CG) model working with a machine-learning (ML) fitted C1'-resolution Hamiltonian. The CG trajectories can be back-mapped to atomistic resolution using another ML algorithm trained on a large database of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The method allows the user to get structural and dynamic information on large (kilobase range) portions of both protein-bound and free DNA, to transform conceptual cartoons into structural and dynamical models. Trajectories are analyzed using an extensive set of nucleic acid-specific analysis tools, and the results are displayed using a powerful and flexible graphic interface. The web tool uses state-of-the-art technologies such as (i) Docker components orchestrated by Docker Swarm, with containers deployed on demand for computations, (ii) WebGL-programmed NGL molecular viewer and the JavaScript plotly library for interactive plots, and (iii) noSQL-MongoDB for storage. The server is accessible at https://mmb.irbbarcelona.org/CGNAW/. The web tool is free and open to all users, and there are no login requirements.
