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

Due to their strong dependence on local atonic environments, NMR chemical shifts are among the most powerful tools for strucutre elucidation of powdered solids or amorphous materials. Unfortunately, using them for structure determination depends on the ability to calculate them, which  comes at the cost of high accuracy first-principles calculations. Machine learning has recently emerged as a way to overcome the need for quantum chemical calculations, but for chemical shifts in solids it is hindered by the chemical and combinatorial space spanned by molecular solids, the strong dependency of chemical shifts on their environment, and the lack of an experimental database of shifts. We propose a machine learning method based on local environments to accurately predict chemical shifts of molecular solids and their polymorphs to within DFT accuracy. We also demonstrate that the trained model is able to determine, based on the match between experimentally measured and ML-predicted shifts, the structures of cocaine and the drug 4-[4-(2-adamantylcarbamoyl)-5-tert-butylpyrazol-1-yl]benzoic acid.
