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

Cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) single-particle analysis (SPA) has become a powerful technique for macromolecular structure determination. However, its effectiveness is often constrained by limited particle numbers or missing views. To address these challenges, we present CoCoFold, a fine-tuned framework that integrates raw cryo-EM particle images into AlphaFold to directly guide atomic model prediction. CoCoFold adopts a memory-efficient tuning strategy by introducing a fused attention mechanism into AlphaFold's structure module. Moreover, a differentiable network links predicted structures with cryo-EM observations, enabling end-to-end refinement against experimental data. Benchmark experiments with the escalating quantity insufficiency and view-missing of cryo-EM observations, demonstrate that CoCoFold consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods across multiple evaluation metrics.
