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

The rapid expansion of chemical space presents significant challenges in identifying novel ligands for drug targets. Here, we introduce BIOPTIC B1, an ultra-high-throughput ligand-based virtual screening system capable of rapidly evaluating multi-billion-molecule libraries in minutes. In retrospective analyses across seven diverse drug targets, BIOPTIC B1 demonstrated performance comparable to state-of-the-art machine learning models, including Chemprop and Gradient Boosting. Prospectively, we applied BIOPTIC B1 to leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2), a high-priority drug target for Parkinson's disease. BIOPTIC B1 successfully identified multiple novel ligands binding both wild-type and G2019S-mutant LRRK2 with dissociation constants (K
