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 magnitude of the acidity of the oxyluciferin in water in the ground and excited state is investigated, and it is found for the first time using computational approach that the enol group of the phenol-enol species is the most acidic in the ground state, but the deprotonation of the phenol of the phenol-keto form is the most favored in the excited state. The relative order of the acidity among the hydroxyl groups in the oxyluciferin is attributed to the sequence of the O-H bond lengths in the enol and phenol group of the phenol-enol form, and the phenol group of the phenol-keto species. The mechanism of determining the dominant emissive species in the excited state is proposed, and the dependence of emission light colors on the photoexcitation energy is elucidated by the high relative concentration of six chemical forms in the ground state and the absorption efficiency.
