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 DL_ANALYSER Notation for Atomic Interactions, DANAI, is the notation syntax to describe interactions between molecules. This notation can annotate precisely the detailed atomistic interactions without having to resolve to diagrammatic illustrations, and yet can be interpreted easily by both human users and computational means. By making use of the DL_F Notation, a universal atom typing scheme for molecular simulations, DANAI contains the expression of atomic species in a natural chemical sense. It is implemented within DL_ANALYSER, a general analysis software program for DL_POLY molecular dynamics simulation software. By making references to the molecular dynamics simulations of pure ethanoic acid liquid, it is shown that DL_ANALYSER can identify and distinguish a variety of hydrogen bond and hydrophobic contact networks through the use of the DANAI expression. It was found that the carboxylic groups preferentially orientated in a "head-to-tail" conformation to form hydrogen bonds between the carbonyl oxygen and hydroxyl hydrogen, resulting in a series of linear structures that intertwined with pockets of methyl clusters.
