The recent and rapid emergence of COVID-19 infection has led to a flood of publications describing all aspects of the disease and its presentation. The appearance of chilblain-like lesions, in children and young adults has particularly caught the attention of healthcare professionals with an interest in the foot. With such a novel infection, demand for information is high at a time when evidence is scarce. Consequently, there has been a renaissance in the publication of case studies. This type of research, previously relegated from many mainstream journals, as a low level source of evidence, has permitted the rapid reporting, publication and dissemination of much needed clinical data which can be used as a foundation to inform further research and investigations about a new global infection.

Fluorine (F) substitution is a common method of drug discovery and development. However, there are no accurate approaches available for predicting the bioactivity changes after F-substitution, as the effect of substitution on the interactions between compounds and proteins (CPI) remains a mystery. In this study, we constructed a data set with 111,168 pairs of fluorine-substituted and nonfluorine-substituted compounds.
