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

Molecular dynamics simulations are used to calculate the time-dependent Stokes shift following photoexcitation of Trp-7 (W7) in myoglobin. In agreement with experiment, a long time (approximately 60 ps) component is observed. Since the long time Stokes shift component is absent when we repeat the calculation with protein frozen at the instant of photoexcitation, we firmly establish that protein flexibility is required to observe slow Stokes shift dynamics in this case. A transition between sub-states near the middle of a 30 ns ground-state trajectory gave us an opportunity to compare solvation dynamics in two different environments. While some of the superficial features are different, we find that the underlying dynamics are shared by the two isomers. It is necessary to look beyond a decomposition of the Stokes shift into protein and water contributions and probe the underlying dynamics of protein side groups, backbone, and water dynamics to obtain a full picture of the relaxation process. We analyze water residence times, diffusion, and reorientation dynamics in the hydration layer. We find slow components in each of these quantities and critically examine their origin and how they affect the observed Stokes shift.
