An Anisotropic Effective Model for the Simulation of Semiflexible Ring Polymers.
Article in Macromolecules, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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
We derive and introduce anisotropic effective pair potentials to coarse-grain solutions of semiflexible ring polymers of various lengths. The system has been recently investigated by means of full monomer-resolved computer simulations, revealing a host of unusual features and structure formation, which, however, cannot be captured by a rotationally averaged effective pair potential between the rings' centers of mass [Bernabei M.; Soft Matter2013, 9, 1287]. Our new coarse-graining strategy is to picture each ring as a soft, penetrable disk. We demonstrate that for the short- and intermediate-length rings the new model is quite capable of capturing the physics in a quantitative fashion, whereas for the largest rings, which resemble flexible ones, it fails at high densities. Our work opens the way for the physical justification of general, anisotropic penetrable interaction potentials.
