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 ionic liquids are typically characterized by strong electrostatic interactions resulting in a charge ordering and retardation of their translational and rotational behaviour. Unfortunately, this effect is often overestimated in classical molecular dynamics simulations. This can be circumvented in a twofold way: the easiest way is to reduce the partial charges of the ions to sub-integer values of ±0.7-0.9 e. The more realistic model is to include polarizable forces, e.g. Drude-oscillators, but it comes along with an increasing computational effort. On the other hand, charge-scaled models are claimed to take an average polarizability into account. But do both models have the same impact on structure and dynamics of molecular ionic liquids? In the present study several molecular dynamics simulations of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate are performed with different levels of polarization as well as with varying charge scaling factors of 0.74 to 0.90. The analysis of the structural and dynamical results are performed in different levels: from the atomic point of view over the molecular level to collective properties determined by the complete sample.
