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

We investigate the representation of atomic molecular environments as a list of the atoms neighboring an origin ranked by distance. We show that contact densities collected for origin-neighbor pairs of set types have regular and specific distributions when stratified by ranks. This is used to build a scoring function assessing the fitness of individual atoms with respect to their environment (FS, fitness score), as well as to characterize the contact preferences (CP) for pairs of atoms. Tested against the 3DRobot data set, the FS score was found to be highly discriminative of decoys vs native X-ray. The code is freely available on GitHub (https://github.com/DreanoLoic/Fitness_score.git).
