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

A current emphasis in empirical force fields is on the development of potential functions that explicitly treat electronic polarizability. In the present article, the commonly used methodologies for modelling electronic polarization are presented along with an overview of selected application studies. Models presented include induced point-dipoles, classical Drude oscillators, and fluctuating charge methods. The theoretical background of each method is followed by an introduction to extended Langrangian integrators required for computationally tractable molecular dynamics simulations using polarizable force fields. The remainder of the review focuses on application studies using these methods. Emphasis is placed on water models, for which numerous examples exist, with a more thorough discussion presented on the recently published models associated with the Drude-based CHARMM and the AMOEBA force fields. The utility of polarizable models for the study of ion solvation is then presented followed by an overview of studies of small molecules (e.g. CCl(4), alkanes, etc) and macromolecule (proteins, nucleic acids and lipid bilayers) application studies. The review is written with the goal of providing a general overview of the current status of the field and to facilitate future application and developments.
