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

The non-radiative relaxation of the excitation energy from higher energy states to the lowest energy state in chlorophylls is a crucial preliminary step for the process of photosynthesis. Despite the continuous theoretical and experimental efforts to clarify the ultrafast dynamics of this process, it still represents the object of an intense investigation because the ultrafast timescale and the congestion of the involved states makes its characterization particularly challenging. Here we exploit 2D electronic spectroscopy and recently developed data analysis tools to provide more detailed insights into the mechanism of internal conversion within the Q-bands of chlorophyll a. The measurements confirmed the timescale of the overall internal conversion rate (170 fs) and captured the presence of a previously unidentified ultrafast (40 fs) intermediate step, involving vibronic levels of the lowest excited state.
