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

Computational chemistry has become a central tool in spectroscopic studies in most of chemical science. The quality of a calculated vibrational spectrum is commonly expressed as the deviation of the peak position from the experimental reference. With the increasing application of vibrational spectroscopy to complex (biological) systems, this is likely not sustainable. Here we present a quality measure for theoretical vibrational spectra based on matching the spectra to a reference database with the help of correlation coefficients. This approach can easily be applied to large sets of data and complex spectra without easily identifiable peak positions. We demonstrate this on a database of infrared spectra of 670 compounds using six different theoretical (DFT and force field) methods. Most importantly, it is intuitively understandable by both theoreticians and experimentalists.
