Enhancing RNA 3D Structure Prediction in CASP16: Integrating Physics-Based Modeling With Machine Learning for Improved Predictions.
Article in Proteins, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
During the 16th Critical Assessment of Structure Prediction (CASP16), the Vfold team participated in the two RNA categories: RNA Monomers and RNA Multimers. The Vfold RNA structure prediction method is hierarchical and hybrid, incorporating physics-based models (Vfold2D and VfoldMCPX) for 2D structure prediction, template-based and molecular dynamics simulation-based models (Vfold-Pipeline, IsRNA and RNAJP) for 3D structure prediction. Additionally, Vfold integrates knowledge from templates and the state-of-the-art machine learning model AlphaFold3 into our physics-based models. This integration enhances the prediction accuracy. Here we describe the Vfold approach in CASP16 using selected targets and show how the integration of traditional structure prediction methods with machine learning models can improve RNA structure prediction accuracy.
