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

Explainable artificial intelligence approaches accelerate drug discovery by improving molecular representation learning, identifying key molecular structures, and rationalizing drug property prediction. However, developing end-to-end explainable models for structure-activity relationship modeling in target-specific compound property prediction remains challenging due to the limited availability of compound-protein interaction data for individual targets and the fact that small changes in chemical substituents or local structural motifs can lead to large differences in molecular properties. Thus, optimally leveraging structural and property information and identifying key moieties related to compound-protein affinity for specific targets is essential. We propose a framework implementing graph neural networks (GNNs) to leverage property and structure information from pairs of molecules with activity cliffs targeting specific proteins to predict compound-protein affinity (i.e., half-maximal inhibitory concentration, IC
