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

Selective binding of ions to biomolecules plays a vital role in numerous biological processes. To understand the specific role of induced effects in selective ion binding, we use quantum chemical and pairwise-additive force-field simulations to study Na(+) and K(+) binding to various small molecules representative of ion binding functional groups in biomolecules. These studies indicate that electronic polarization significantly contributes to both absolute and relative ion-binding affinities. Furthermore, this contribution depends on both the number and the specific chemistries of the coordinating molecules, thus highlighting the complexity of ion-ligand interactions. Specifically, multibody interactions reduce as well as enhance the dipole moments of the ion-coordinating molecules, thereby affecting observables like coordination number distributions of ions. The differential polarization induced in molecules coordinating these two equivalently charged, but different-sized, ions also depends upon the number of coordinating molecules, showing the importance of multibody effects in distinguishing these ions thermodynamically. Because even small differences in ionic radii (0.4 Å for Na(+) and K(+)) produce differential polarization trends critical to distinguishing ions thermodynamically, it is likely that polarization plays an important role in thermodynamically distinguishing other ions and charged chemical and biological functional groups.
