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

In the field of computational chemistry, computer models are quickly and cheaply constructed to predict toxicology hazards and results, with no need for test material or animals as these computational predictions are often based on physicochemical properties of chemical structures. Multiple methodologies are employed to support in silico assessments based on machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL). This review introduces the development of computational toxicology, focusing on ML and DL and emphasizing their importance in the field of toxicology. A fine balance between target potency, selectivity, absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, toxicity (ADMET) and clinical safety properties should be achieved to discover a potential new drug. It is advantageous to perform virtual predictions as early as possible in drug development processes, even before a molecule is synthesized. Currently, there are numerous commercially available and free web-based programs for toxicity prediction, which can be used to construct various predictive models. The key features of the QSAR method are also outlined, and the selection of appropriate physicochemical descriptors is a prerequisite for robust predictions. In addition, examples of open-source tools applied to toxicity prediction are included, as well as examples of the application of different computational methods for the prediction of toxicity in drug design and environmental toxicology.
