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

Ensemble docking is a prominent source of protein-ligand complex structures, which could be conveniently analyzed with interaction fingerprints approach in a machine learning framework. Nevertheless, the chemical nature and provenance of the source data libraries used for model development may influence the predictive ability. We assessed the performance of SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro) inhibitors classification by random forest models trained on different fingerprint implementations using three inhibitor libraries, comprising drug repurposing data or compounds rationally designed as Mpro inhibitors. Models trained on drug repurposing data showed a low prediction performance on their own, while infusion of these data into libraries with specific inhibitors greatly improved applicability domains of the models. Our results highlight the importance of balanced dataset preparation for machine learning applications in medicinal chemistry, especially when relied on drug repurposing experiments.
