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

In this paper, we continue to explore the repair mechanisms of the cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer. We find that a full description of both C5-C5' and C6-C6' bond splitting requires a multidimensional treatment involving a solvent coordinate in addition to changes in internal dimer coordinates. Nonequilibrium effects are likely to be important as well, although the initial conditions following forward electron transfer to the dimer, beyond the scope of this study, will ultimately determine the importance of these effects. Throughout the splitting of C5-C5' and C6-C6' bonds, a significant amount of excess charge is delocalized onto the solvent. We have verified that this is not an artifact of the electronic density functional theory (DFT) method used for this anionic system with Schrödinger equation-based quantum chemical cluster calculations. The amount and variability of charge delocalization changes with the course of the reaction. The splitting of the C6-C6' bond is accompanied by both an increase in electron density on the C6 and C6' carbon atoms and an increase in the water density near those atoms. These features are observed both in our equilibrium umbrella sampling simulations and nonequilibrium trajectories.
