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

Precise identification of T cell antigens in silico is crucial for the development of cancer mRNA vaccines. However, current computational methods only utilize sequence-level rather than atomic level features to identify T cell antigens, which results in poor representation of those that activate immune responses. Here we propose deepAntigen, a graph convolutional network-based framework, to identify T cell antigens at the atomic level. deepAntigen achieves excellent performance both in the prediction of antigen-human leukocyte antigen (HLA) binding and antigen-T cell receptor (TCR) interactions, which can provide comprehensive guidance for identification of T cell antigens. The tumor neoantigens predicted by deepAntigen in lung, breast and pancreatic cancer patients are experimentally validated through ELISPOT assays, which detect successful activation of CD8
