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

An isotropic periodic sum (IPS) is a powerful technique to reasonably calculate intermolecular interactions for wide range of molecular systems under periodic boundary conditions. A linear-combination-based IPS (LIPS) has been developed to attain computational accuracy close to an exact lattice sum, such as the Ewald sum. The algorithm of the original LIPS method has a high computational cost because it needs long-range interaction calculations in real space. This becomes a performance bottleneck for long-time molecular simulations. In this work, the combination of an LIPS and fast Fourier transform (FFT) was developed, and evaluated on homogeneous and heterogeneous molecular systems. This combinational approach of LIPS/FFT attained computational efficiency close to that of a smooth particle mesh Ewald while maintaining the same high accuracy as the original LIPS. We concluded that LIPS/FFT has great potential to extend the capability of IPS techniques for the fast and accurate computation of many types of molecular systems.
