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

Over the past few years, time-dependent ultrafast fluorescence spectroscopy method has been applied to the study of protein dynamics. However, observations from these experiments are in a controversy with other experimental studies. Participating of theoretical methods in this debate has not reconciled the contradiction, because the predicted initial relaxation from computer simulations is one-order faster than the ultrafast fluorescence spectroscopy experiment. In those simulations, pairwise force fields are employed, which have been shown to underestimate the roughness of the free energy landscape. Therefore, the relaxation rate of protein and water molecules under pairwise force fields is falsely exaggerated. In this work, we compared the relaxations of tryptophan/environment interaction under linear response approximation employing pairwise, polarized, and polarizable force fields. Results show that although the relaxation can be slowed down to a certain extent, the large gap between experiment and theory still cannot be filled.
