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

Visualizing vibrational motions calculated with different ab initio packages requires dedicated post-processing tools. Here, we present a PyMOL plugin called PyVibMS for visualizing the vibrational motions for both molecular and solid systems calculated by mainstream quantum chemical computer programs including Gaussian, Q-Chem, VASP, and CRYSTAL. Benefiting from the continuing development of the PyMOL platform, PyVibMS provides powerful functionalities and user-friendly interface. PyVibMS was written in Python and its open-source nature makes it flexible and sustainable. As an example, the motions of the Konkoli-Cremer local vibrational modes are shown in this work for the first time. PyVibMS is freely available at https://github.com/smutao/PyVibMS . Graphical abstract In this work, a PyMOL plugin named PyVibMS is developed to visualize molecular and lattice vibrations.
