Introduction to theory/modeling methods in photosynthesis.
Article in Photosynthesis research. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Theory and molecular modeling play an increasingly important role in complementing the experimental findings and supporting the interpretation of the data. Owing to the increase in computational power combined with the development of more efficient methods, computer simulations and modeling have emerged as primary ingredients of modern scientific inquiry. Here, we introduce the methods that in our view bring the largest promises in photosynthesis research, indicate how they have already contributed, and can in the near future assume a significant role in this field. Particular emphasis is given to density functional theory and its combination with molecular dynamics simulations. We point out the need for a multi-scale approach in facing the challenging task of describing processes which cover several orders of magnitude both in the time scale and in the size of the systems of interest.
