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

motivationCold-start drug-target affinity prediction remains challenging because static interaction mechanisms cannot adapt to individual drug-target pairs.

resultsWe propose PCIM-DTA, which constructs pair-level interaction representations and derives a pair-specific condition vector from global drug and target features. The condition vector modulates attention, pair-token features, distribution-aware recalibration, and regression parameters, while graph message passing captures higher-order dependencies. Experiments on Davis and BindingDB-Kd show that PCIM-DTA achieves competitive or superior performance under Warm, Cold-drug, Cold-target, Cold-both, and Scaffold-drug settings. Ablation studies support the contribution of each component. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: The datasets used in this study are publicly available, including the Davis and BindingDB-Kd datasets. The implementation code of PCIM-DTA is publicly available at https://github.com/1322469934/PCIM-DTA.
