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

MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ calculations were carried out for the ZFH₃-B complexes (Z = C, Si, Ge, Sn and Pb; B = C₂H₂, C₂H₄, C₆H₆ and C₅H₅⁻; relativistic effects were taken into account for Ge, Sn and Pb elements). These calculations are supported by other approaches; the decomposition of the energy of interaction, Quantum Theory of Atoms in Molecules (QTAIM) and Natural Bond Orbital (NBO) method. The results show that tetrel bonds with π-electrons as Lewis bases are classified as Z···C links between single centers (C is an atom of the π-electron system) or as Z···π interactions where F‒Z bond is directed to the mid-point (or nearly so) of the CC bond of the Lewis base. The analogous systems with Z···C/π interactions were found in the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD). It was found that the strength of interaction increases with the increase of the atomic number of the tetrel element and that for heavier tetrel elements the ZFH₃ tetrahedral structure is more deformed towards the structure with the planar ZH₃ fragment. The results of calculations show that the tetrel bond is sometimes accompanied by the Z-H···C hydrogen bond or even sometimes the ZFH₃-B complexes are linked only by the hydrogen bond interaction.
