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

Protein sequence analysis examines the order of amino acids within protein sequences to unlock diverse types of a wealth of knowledge about biological processes and genetic disorders. It helps in forecasting disease susceptibility by finding unique protein signatures, or biomarkers that are linked to particular disease states. Protein Sequence analysis through wet-lab experiments is expensive, time-consuming and error prone. To facilitate large-scale proteomics sequence analysis, the biological community is striving for utilizing AI competence for transitioning from wet-lab to computer aided applications. However, Proteomics and AI are two distinct fields and development of AI-driven protein sequence analysis applications requires knowledge of both domains. To bridge the gap between both fields, various review articles have been written. However, these articles focus revolves around few individual tasks or specific applications rather than providing a comprehensive overview about wide tasks and applications. Following the need of a comprehensive literature that presents a holistic view of wide array of tasks and applications, contributions of this manuscript are manifold: It bridges the gap between Proteomics and AI fields by presenting a comprehensive array of AI-driven applications for 63 distinct protein sequence analysis tasks. It equips AI researchers by facilitating biological foundations of 63 protein sequence analysis tasks. It enhances development of AI-driven protein sequence analysis applications by providing comprehensive details of 68 protein databases. It presents a rich data landscape, encompassing 627 benchmark datasets of 63 diverse protein sequence analysis tasks. It highlights the utilization of 25 unique word embedding methods and 13 language models in AI-driven protein sequence analysis applications. It accelerates the development of AI-driven applications by facilitating current state-of-the-art performances across 63 protein sequence analysis tasks.
