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 PDBrestore, a free web interface for repairing protein PDB chains extracted from either a local PDB file or a PDB file downloaded from the Protein Data Bank. PDBrestore performs several key tasks: It adds hydrogen atoms, completes missing atoms in side chains, fills gaps in the sequence, derives the itp parameter file for a ligand according to the GAFF2 force field for GROMACS applications, and generates a reasonably pre-equilibrated solvated simulation box. The interface is designed to streamline the cumbersome preparatory work required to set up an initial protein-ligand coordinates PDB file for use in drug design projects, such as free energy perturbation or thermodynamic integration calculations of ligand binding affinities. Additionally, PDBrestore is available as a command-line application within the open-source ORAC distribution, which can be freely downloaded from the website: www1.chim.unifi.it/orac.
